 # Random
 
-_Random_ input plugin generate very simple random value samples using the device interface _/dev/urandom_, if not available it will use a unix timestamp as value.
+the _Random_ input plugin generates random value samples using the device interface `/dev/urandom`. If that interface is unavailable, it uses a Unix timestamp as a value.
 
-## Configuration Parameters
+## Configuration parameters
 
 The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:
 
-| Key | Description |
-| :--- | :--- |
-| Samples | If set, it will only generate a specific number of samples. By default this value is set to _-1_, which will generate unlimited samples. |
-| Interval\_Sec | Interval in seconds between samples generation. Default value is _1_. |
-| Interval\_Nsec | Specify a nanoseconds interval for samples generation, it works in conjunction with the Interval\_Sec configuration key. Default value is _0_. |
-| Threaded | Indicates whether to run this input in its own [thread](../../administration/multithreading.md#inputs). Default: `false`. |
