Zabbix frontend

[Xyue]

Hi,

I have assign static IP(10.4.2.240) to my zabbix server and tried to use my laptop which is in another subnet (10.29.34.37) to access the zabbix interface by typing "http://10.4.2.240/zabbix" in my browser but it doesn't work.

I googled and found below link which mention about frontend access.

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/installation/appliance#frontend_access

I'm not sure which part of the file should I edit ?
Any idea ?

Thanks.

Can you connect by non-HTTP protocol?
ex.
Do you have a response by ping?
Can you connect by ssh?
Firewall settings is done?

If you cannot connect, I think that reason is not settings for web server.
You must check network enviroment.

Hi,

I able to ping the server from my laptop. Firewall setting is done as i have open the port for 10051 using below command.
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 10051 -j ACCEPT

I havent't setup SSH yet but has already installed XRDP.

I have tried "http://ZabbixServerIP:10051" and it only shows me "OK" (from zabix server and my laptop).

So what else should i do to allow my laptop browser to open the Zabbix web interface ?

Any other steps i might missed out ?

TQ

Web frontend use port 80 by default.

Hi,

Can advise where to change the port ?

I follow the steps listed in below link and configure port number of Zabbix server to 10051.

https://www.atlantic.net/community/howto/install-zabbix-server-on-centos-6/

My question might be stupid as this is the first time I use linux and many command I'm still try my best to understand.

Thanks in advance.

You must have permission of the port number 10051 to access from Zabbix agent to Zabbix server.
You must have permission of the port number 80 to access from Web browser to Web server.

Both of permission settings you need.

ex.

# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 10051 -j ACCEPT 
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT

Hi Atsushi,

Thanks a lot for your advise. I have include port 80 into the iptables and now i able to open the web interface using my laptop.
