Configuration Internals
ProxMon stores the API token secret in the system keyring via qtkeychain. The keyring backend is selected automatically — KWallet on KDE, libsecret on GNOME.
The secret is keyed by apiTokenSecret:tokenId@host:port. Removing and re-adding the widget, Kwallet keys are auto detected and loaded automatically.
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Host | Proxmox IP or hostname |
| Port | Default: 8006 |
| API Token ID | Format: user@realm!tokenname
|
| API Token Secret | Secret from token creation |
| Update Keyring | Migrates new secret into keyring |
| Forget | Clears secret field only, does not delete keyring entry |
| Refresh Interval | Update frequency in seconds (default: 30) |
| Ignore SSL | Enable for self-signed certificates |
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Low latency mode | Reduces request timeout to 5s (default: 10s). Recommended for LAN. Disable for WAN or high-latency connections. |
Configurable minimum interval between duplicate notifications (default: 120s). Enable in Behavior tab → Rate Limiting.
Sensitive identity fragments are redacted from notification text by default. Replaces user@realm!tokenid with REDACTED@realm!REDACTED. Toggle in Behavior tab → Privacy.
If one node in a cluster is unreachable, ProxMon continues displaying data from the remaining online nodes rather than showing a full error screen. A ⚠ indicator appears in the footer timestamp when partial data is being shown. The compact representation CPU% excludes offline nodes from the average.
