    IFNAME - not working/not being resolved

    Hi
    (has been updated)

    I am rather new on zabbix and now i am struggeling to get the network monitoring working. I am main a windows guy and the zabbix was allready running and i am trying to learn and improve the use/setup of this.
    i cant get zabbix to create the "discovered items" and i have tried various things, yesterday i I have remove the existing template and downloaded the newest - Template module windows network by zabbix agent, but still with this all default/std i cant get it to work.

    The network discovery rule "network interfaces wmi get" i can test and see this result when i run test (for windows servers)

    {"data":[{"{#IFNAME}":"vmxnet3 Ethernet Adapter","{#IFDESCR}":"vmxnet3 Ethernet Adapter","{#IFALIAS}":"PROD"},{"{#IFNAME}":"vmxnet 3 Ethernet Adapter #2","{#IFDESCR}":"vmxnet3 Ethernet Adapter","{#IFALIAS}":"ADM"}]}

    But i dont know how to test/debug this more, what is need to create the items based on this and the item prototypes ?

    I have tried to find help on https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...evel_discovery, https://blog.zabbix.com/how-to-use-z...iscovery/9993/, https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...ed_filesystems and https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...iscovery_rules but i have some missing link and cant understand how/when the "discovered item" are created or if this json problem is the cause for me problems

    So if any body has en example of the steps and the various data create by each step i be happy to se it and hope someone can help we with the cause for the "json error". I am assuming i do the step in

    I dont know why or how, but after approx 48 hours it started to work and now it resolves adapter names and replaces IFNAME and so on

    This can be closed or mark solved
