How do I have the zabbix agent ping something?
What is the official / modern way to get a zabbix agent to ping something the zabbix server can't see and send pass/fail to zabbix server?
Edit; putting these lines back in my zabbix agent config got me running again. Just wondering why they got wiped out now, is this going away soon or do I need to do this another way?

I had this working for years, but now I've upgraded to v7 and now I have a bunch of items failing, showing "Unsupported item key" in zabbix front end, and "active check "ping.host[10.100.0.101]" is not supported: Unsupported item key."

Code:
UserParameter=ping.host[*],ping $1 -n 1 |find "TTL=">NUL && echo 1 || echo 0 Timeout=15 AllowKey=system.run[ping.host*]
