Frequently asked questions
What port does Prometheus use?
Prometheus commonly uses these ports: 9090. The default port is 9090. These are community database references — actual configuration may differ.
How do I check if Prometheus is running?
Run sudo ss -tlpn 'sport = :9090' on the server to check for listening processes on these ports. Also use systemctl status <service> to check the service state. Without root you may not see other users' processes. A listening port alone does not prove the software identity — verify with the config file and process name.
What category does Prometheus belong to?
Prometheus belongs to the Web & HTTP Services category. This page lists the software's port associations and their roles.
