Note that Prometheus and other monitoring stack components should use the
`dedicated: monitoring` Kubernetes node selector to make sure the components
get scheduled on `mon[1-3]` nodes which are hosted in a privileged VLAN where
they have access to UPS SNMP targets, Mikrotik router/switch API-s etc.
To add monitoring targets inside the Kubernetes cluster make use of
[PodMonitor](https://github.com/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator/blob/main/Documentation/user-guides/getting-started.md#using-podmonitors) or ServiceMonitor custom
resource definitions.
For external targets (ab)use the Probe CRD as seen in `node-exporter.yaml`
or `ping-exporter.yaml`
Alerts are sent to #kube-prod Slack channel. The alerting rules are automatically
picked up by Prometheus operator via Kubernetes manifests utilizing
