    Can a proxy report to a proxy?

    We have a remote datacenter that will have all of its hosts report to a single proxy in that datacenter and push its data to our main Zabbix server.

    We have clusters of machines where only 1 of 5 servers in that cluster has a LAN address that can talk directly to the main proxy server for that datacenter. The other 4 hosts are in a sub-subnet and cannot talk directly to the proxy.

    My question is, if I install a proxy on the 1 server in that cluster which can communicate with the main proxy for the datacenter, can the proxy for that sub-subnet report to the main proxy and have its data pushed to our main Zabbix server?

    Proxy2 --> Proxy1 --> Zabbix server

    We are using v2.0.4.

    Thank you in advance!

    proxies can not be chained, but you could set up ssh port forwarding on the proxy host
