    How to send ICMPPING for each VM host after vCenter connection

    HI,
    I have connected Zabbix 6.4 version and vCenter 7.0 version with sdk.

    After the connection, ESXi and VMs were automatically found. And zabbix could get the all status of ESXi and VM.
    Now, I want to check the host network down status using "ICMPPING" for each VM.​

    I understand that the template of icmping is as follows. And I Know I have to insert VM IP on the <target>.
    icmpping[<target>,<packets>,<interval>,<size>,<timeout>]

    ​However, the IP of each VM is unknown because Zabbix only get vCenter IP or VM UUID not VM IP.
    This means that each VM IP cannot be set as a target.​

    How can I check network down status via ICMPPING with VM IP?
