Prometheus supports a bearer token approach to authenticate prometheus scrape requests, override the default Prometheus config with the one generated using mc. To generate a Prometheus config for an alias, use [mc](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-mc.html#quickstart) as follows `mc admin prometheus generate <alias> [METRIC-TYPE]`. The valid values for METRIC-TYPE are `cluster`, `node`, `bucket` and `resource` and if not mentioned, it defaults to `cluster`.

The command will generate...

ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
rsa-sha2-256
rsa-sha2-512
ssh-rsa
ssh-dss
```

`--sftp=kex-algos=...` specifies the supported key-exchange algorithms in preference order.

Valid values: 

```
curve25519-sha256
******@****.***
ecdh-sha2-nistp256
ecdh-sha2-nistp384
ecdh-sha2-nistp521
diffie-hellman-group14-sha256

To test this setup, practice put calls to the server using `mc` and use `mc ls` on
the data directory to view the size of the object.
