# Grafana Setup
When installed Grafana listens on [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) and you can login as user *admin* with password *admin*. Once logged in you are asked to change the default password.
## Datasource
- Configure Grafana to use InfluxDB as a new datasource

Import all or some of the example dashboards from [dashboards/*.json](dashboards/) into Grafana as a starting point and get creative making your own cool dashboards - please share anything useful :)
- When importing a dashboard, select the **hmci** datasource you have created.
## Security and Proxy
The easiest way to secure Grafana with https is to put it behind a proxy server such as nginx.
If you want to serve /grafana as shown below, you also need to edit */etc/grafana/grafana.ini* and change the *root_url*:
```
root_url = %(protocol)s://%(domain)s:%(http_port)s/grafana/
```
Nginx snippet:
```nginx
location /grafana/ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
}
```
