    Monitoring Virtual Interfaces with Zabbix Agent

    Hi everyone,

    Is it possible to monitor virtual interfaces of a PFSense software router using a Zabbix agent?
    The setup is as followed: We just implemented VLANs into our network and are using the PFSense router to do the inter-VLAN routing. Since there is a package containing the Zabbix agent in the PFSense' package manager we installed that and wish to use it to monitor the traffic that is flowing through our interfaces, maintaining an overview.
    All our VLAN interfaces are virtual and are connected to the real interface: eth0. I have been able to monitor this physical interface using: net.if.in[eth0,] however if I try to replace the eth0 with the name of a virtual interface: net.if.in[VLAN80,], I get "Not Supported". I have tried a range of combinations as well, meaning the most likely possible solutions: VLAN 80, eth0_VLAN80, but nothing gives me the data I require.

    Does anyone know a way to do so?

    Thanks in advance,
