Internal ICMP/Ping

[rafael.lago]

Good Afternoon,

I have a server with Zabbix monitoring external links (ICMP/Ping), Active Host and monitoring unit.

I wonder if there is the possibility of Zabbix Agent (Windows) to perform monitoring cameras monitoring and routers via a PING type sent by the agent installed on a given server.

Realized the creation of the View-ITEM 01 (icmpping [10.11.100.21]) and View-01 (icmpping [10.11.100.22]) and their host {TRIGGERS: icmpping [10.11.100.21]. Count (600.1)} = 0 and {host: icmpping [10.11.100.22]. count (600.1)} = 0 but without success.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

This is not directly possible, as Zabbix Agent does not support icmpping commands in UserParameters. You can script your own UserParameter that takes a variableinput as the IP to ping and pass that on to your script.

Although this may be overkill, a Zabbix Proxy would be an ideal solution for this as you can deploy that in your internal network and have that ping the hosts you like.
