Zabbix agent and server adress range

[Mike]

Hi,

First, thanks for this excellent tool, it saves me hours !

I have one question regarding the client configuration :

My Zabbix server is located in our headquarters, and I would like to access zabbix agent trough a VPN link.

My problem is the VPN interface is sometimes restarted, and the "local IP" can change in a whole range (from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.250, like with a DHCP).

From the client point of view, my server can have any IP in this list !

I searched forums, documentation and tried how to specifiy a IP range for the server in zabbix_agentd.conf, but without success.

Of course I can list all the possibilities with comma separated values, but I'm not sure It's really the most efficient way ;)

Thanks by advance,

Mike

why dont you set a firewall rule that forwards all port 10051 and 10050 traffic to the same ips all the time

Unfortunatly, the VPN is not managed by me, and the only thing I can modify on the server running the agent is the zabbix_agentd.conf.

So the question is really : is it possible to specify an IP range ?

If not, consider this as a request for feature ;)
