      <a class="link" href="https://prometheus.io/" target="_top">Prometheus format</a>.
      The metrics endpoint is intended for scraping by Prometheus server to collect the Broker telemetry.</p><p>The Prometheus metric endpoints are mapped under /metrics path and /metrics/*.
      The latter allows to get the Virtual Host statistics by specify the path to the virtual host as
      /metrics/&lt;virtual host node name&gt;/&lt; virtual host name&gt;.
      The former allow to get all Broker statistics or Virtual Host statistics when called with HOST header
      set to the Virtual Host name</p><p>
      The metrics endpoints allow anonymous access by default. If required, an authentication can be enabled for the
      metrics endpoints by setting http management context variable
      <code class="literal">qpid.httpManagement.enableMetricContentAuthentication</code> to <code class="literal">true</code>.
    </p><p>The Broker JVM statistics are disabled by default. The metrics endpoints can be called with parameter
      <code class="literal">includeDisabled</code> set to <code class="literal">true</code> to include JVM  broker metrics into endpoint
      output. If required, the JVM metrics could be enabled by setting context variable
      <code class="literal">qpid.metrics.includeDisabled</code> to <code class="literal">true</code>.
