Certainly. node_exporter acts either as a HTTP endpoint or a HTTPS endpoint, depending on whether you've enabled TLS on it or not, and therefore *can* be accessed from a browser. When connecting from a browser, you'd use either http://example.com:9100/ or https://example.com:9100/ depending on how you configured node_exporter. Only one of these will work. > > I understand that Strict-Transport-Security is used on web server to > redirect the http to https by inserting that information in header so that > the client connect using https instead of http. > But if you've configured node_exporter as a HTTP server, there's no HTTPS service to redirect *to*. node_exporter only does one or the other.
