Hi,
I have been tasked with trialling Zabbix in our environment as a possible replacement for Zenoss. We have about 1000 devices to monitor and so far I prefer the Zabbix interface compared to zenoss but the documentation is lacking clarity and causing me much frustration to the point where I might just stick with Zenoss. For Example im trying to configure a Zabbix proxy to receive SNMP traps ( something that zenoss comes enabled with OOTB) The documentation refers to a KEY field which I cannot find on the GUI and I do not want to configure a host for every SNMP devices that I send traps for.
Then there is this:
For the best performance, SNMPTT should be configured as a daemon using snmptthandler-embedded to pass the traps to it. See instructions for configuring SNMPTT in its homepage
I dont want to go and have to search through another site to find config, Zabbix should have what they consider best practice. Im not a linux guru and we are a Microsoft house so we dont have time to get this working if its going to take to long due to lack of information. I would like to get Zabbix in and if we do then we will be purchasing support but it needs to feel as easy as it did getting Zennos in.
Is there any way to get a more details step by step guide to get this working
