-c <path_file_conf> o --conf <path_file_conf>	Path to the plugin configuration file containing the configured parameters.

It shouldmust be taken into account that the interval that we define in this configuration file, which will be the interval of the agents that are generated when the plugin is executed, has to be equal to the plugin execution interval.interval of the plugin. If this is not the case, the modules of the generated agentsagent modules will be set to "unknown"“unknown” inat thetimes moments in whichwhen the agents try to collect the data but the plugin has not yet been executed yet.executed.

The plugin execution interval will be equal to module_interval defined in the plugin installation per agent interval where the plugin has been installed. In the screenshot of the installation section you can also see where to locate the plugin module execution interval.
