Hi, I'm a newbie to Prometheus, I've set up node_exporter on a Linux server which is monitoring on the default port 9100, However I want to monitor multiple ports on the same server. How do I go about it?

You'd normally have a job per exporter in your configuration, with different jobs using different ports. So your node exporter job would be scraping port 9100 and then other jobs for other exporters on other ports.

Hi,

You can use blackbox exporter  to monitor multiple ports on a machine.
