Hi,

This is a simple item setup I have done:

Description: mytest
Type : TELNET Agent
Key: telnet.run[mytest]
User name: user 	
Password: password
Executed script: echo 2
Type of information: Numeric (unsigned)

(Replace user and password with real ones)

It is working fine.

Of course, you have to replace 'echo 2' in 'Executed script' by something useful.

Hope this helps,
Alixen

The script is run on the client. If is is a Unix/Linux system, you can use all the power of shell commands (grep, sed, awk,...) to do that.
If it is switch or router, I am afraid that it will not be possible.
There is no way to do any processing on Zabbix server side (it may be a good idea for an enhancement).
May be you should look at external script instead of telnet agent to do that.

Don't worry, english isn't my first language either
