    traceroute / ping / nmap missing from zabbix-proxy-sqlite3

    Is this an oversight or intentional? I guess you could deploy a separate agent on the proxy host but this seems counterintuitive since problems are sourced from proxies (and users expect to right-click on the problem and have the ability to run basic diagnostics). fping is present but that leaves traceroute and nmap capabilities unaccounted for.

    It is up to the server administrator to install any additional packages that he/she wants to use. traceroute/ping/nmap commands are not used by Zabbix.

      Zabbix comes pre-configured with ping / traceroute / and OS detect (nmap) functions. These functions depend, out of the box, on the corresponding utilities. How can you say they're not used by zabbix? Also, installing additional utilities in a docker environment is a non-trivial thing. Since zabbix is shipped with a traceroute script....the docker images should have traceroute.

        Oh, those, yeah, never used those example scripts. Feel free to open an enhancement request in https://support.zabbix.com if you like. They still are external packages that are not used by Zabbix itself.
