Once pfSense API is installed, you can set the API to be read-only in System > API > Settings.
Currently the only supported authentication mode is 'Local Database'.
There are two currently supported authentication modes: 'Local Database' and 'API Token'. For 'Local Database', use `username` and `password` with the credentials of an admin user. For 'API Token', utilize the `headers` parameter with `client_token` and `client_id` obtained from pfSense as shown below. Do not use both headers and username / password.
WAN interface to monitor can be defined by updating the `wan` param.
The interface to monitor is defined by updating the `wan` parameter. It should be referenced as it is shown under Interfaces > Assignments in pfSense.
Load is returned instead of cpu utilization. This is a limitation in the pfSense API due to the complexity of this calculation. This may become available in future versions.
