Hello,
have a small question regarding net.tcp.port.
When i activate a net.tcp.port[clientagent,3306] check on an agent (monitored by a proxy), the check is done FROM clientagent to clientagent ? So a misconfigured firewall between clients and the server will not be detected. (port 3306 is up, but clients can't connect)
When i activate the same check net.tcp.port[clientagent,3306] on a proxy, the check is done FROM the proxy to the clientagent. So a firewall issue will also be detected, as clients can't connect to the server.
But how to get the servername "clientagent"?
A trigger with name "TCP port 3306 down on {HOST.NAME}" will be translated to "TCP port 3306 down on proxyname" and not "TCP port 3306 down on clientagent"
How do you make your checks?
Thanks
