Zabbix server configuration without proxy

[RonaldMcDonaldTrump]

I installed Zabbix server following the official guide in a virtual enviorement (using virtualbox at home 2 VMs: server and host with debian agent installed ).

I don't install a proxy since my network is only for educational purposes, but I'll consider later.

I need to know if I need additional configuration on Zabbix server in order to make it working.

Actually I got Zabbix server in my host section and gets the data, but not for the host I intend to monitor tough I can ping it successuffly from the server and viceversa.

Thanks to help me!

What type of items do you plan to use for monitoring - different ones have different requirements?

I add a host then I specify its ip. The montoring protocol is agent.

This is my schema

ZABBIX SERVER ---------> DEBIAN MACHINE

Fixed, I didn't set correctly the SERVER parameters in zabbix_agentd.conf
