Identify host

[paulocapelett]

With which item or trigger I can identify the host connected to the ethernet interface of a switch?

For Linux, check out the template "Linux network interfaces by Zabbix agent" which is used by Linux hosts for networking. It auto-creates stats items (like net.if.in, out etc) for every network interface available on that host and also triggers responsible for interface up/down events.

Ok. In the case of Windows, I have my map in SNMP, all hosts as Windows SNMP. So I wanted to know, if I can identify which host is connected to a particular port. Example: Ethernet interface g0/1/2 - "HOSTANAME" - loss. Can I know or identify this?

[Glencoe]

Zabbix reports information that is provided by your devices. If your switch can provide this information then you probably can get it into Zabbix.

In the trigger, the interface is pointed, ok, but I would like to show which host it is, got it?

If you mean displaying the hostname the trigger refers to, you can use {HOST.HOST} macro in the trigger name.

I'm just testing zabbix for a short time, so how would I do it? Would you have to replicate the change across all triggers?

could you help me with an example?

I can add some command on this line to tell me the host that is connected?
Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}): Bits received

You can just go like

Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}) on {HOST.HOST}: Bits received

in the template and problems will display correct hostname. This is a bit redundant though, because problem screen shows hostnames anyway.

don't working....

[paulocapelett]

In my interface it only brings me this...

Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}): Bits received
Interface gi1/0/20(): Bits received

It's not identifying the ALIAS, what could it be?....and also, I'm not able to show which host is connected to it.
