DESCRIPTION

zabbix_get is a command line utility for getting data from Zabbix agent.

OPTIONS

-s, --host host-name-or-IP: Specify host name or IP address of a host.
-p, --port port-number: Specify port number of agent running on the host. Default is 10050.
-I, --source-address IP-address: Specify source IP address.
-k, --key item-key: Specify key of item to retrieve value for.
--tls-connect value: How to connect to agent. Values:

unencrypted: connect without encryption (default)

psk: connect using TLS and a pre-shared key

cert: connect using TLS and a certificate

--tls-ca-file CA-file: Full pathname of a file containing the top-level CA(s) certificates for peer certificate verification.
--tls-crl-file CRL-file: Full pathname of a file containing revoked certificates.
--tls-agent-cert-issuer cert-issuer: Allowed agent certificate issuer.
--tls-agent-cert-subject cert-subject: Allowed agent certificate subject.
--tls-cert-file cert-file: Full pathname of a file containing the certificate or certificate chain.
--tls-key-file key-file: Full pathname of a file containing the private key.
--tls-psk-identity PSK-identity: PSK-identity string.
--tls-psk-file PSK-file: Full pathname of a file containing the pre-shared key.
--tls-cipher13 cipher-string: Cipher string for OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer for TLS 1.3. Override the default ciphersuite selection criteria. This option is not available if OpenSSL version is less than 1.1.1.
--tls-cipher cipher-string: GnuTLS priority string (for TLS 1.2 and up) or OpenSSL cipher string (only for TLS 1.2). Override the default ciphersuite selection criteria.
-h, --help: Display this help and exit.
-V, --version: Output version information and exit.
