agent only on active check

[tnsampaio]

Hi.
I need one method to monitor hosts only by active checks, i need to run agen without listen any port.
Is there one method to get the host "up" on zabbix, with agend not listening?

You've to edit the following in zabbix_agentd.conf

DisablePassive no 0 Disable passive checks. The agent will not listen on any TCP port.
Only active checks will be processed.
0 - do not disable
1 - disable

You also need to set every Item's Type in the WebInterface as
'Zabbix Agent (active)'

Ok, i made all you said already, but zabbix still want to connect to agent to check if host is alive.
Its that my doubt.

Guys,

I have configured a client host to be monitored behind a firewall, so, I put the agentd on host client in Active configuration and in zabbix-server at my CIA I have add a host with all Items in Active Mode.

I am receiving the data from this client host, but I cannot see it on Dashboard.

Why ?

I will have to user a proxy ?

Hi,

Have you configured any trigger for this host ?
Your host will not appear in dashboard until there is at least one trigger defined.

You can define a trigger with nodata function.
Check trigger documentation:
