Need zabbix proxy a public ip to communicate with the server?

[live2]

Hello....

I have install my zabbix server in my primary datacenter. And install last week a proxy in my secondary datacenter. The proxy is behind a firewall.

If proxy need open the port 10050,10051 on the firewall?

Depends a bit on how closed down your firewall is and how you would like to set it up.

Primary data center:
Open the port used for the Zabbix server to listen on, default 10051 on the firewall. If the Zabbix server is behind a firewall and not ON the firewall you will need to create a port forward to the Zabbix server as well

Secondary data center:
Setup your proxy to use the server ip (of the firewall forwarding or the server directly when connected to internet) and leave the default server port the same as in the server configuration file. IF you block outbound traffic you will need to open port 10051 TCP on the firewall in this data center.

This will be enough to let the proxy connect to your Zabbix server to get the information it needs from the server.
