Sender data to Zabbix through proxy

[nq.quan]

Hi all,

After searching lots thread in forums but I can't find my answer,
Please give me a help:
I need to send data to Zabbix for monitoring, my system:
+ Zabbix (cloud server): host/item here
+ Collector: an R.Pi with for collect and send to Zabbix
Network image:
Collector <--proxy_server:abcd.xyz:8080-->Internet --> Zabbix

I mainly used python for automation task but I can not overcome proxy settings.
I also tried to use zabbix_sender (direct install with *.deb) but it failed.
In Collector, I can use env variable http_proxy for access to the internet but can't send data to Zabbix.

Could you please give me some advice?

Thanks.

Agent installed in host?
What type of agent did you defined in the item?

Best regards,

Hi Ivan,

Sorry I didn't clear about your question.
Basically, I don't install zabbix_agent on my cloud Zabbix server.
I use zabbix_sender to send data value to Zabbix trapper items.
I tried OK for sending data without proxy
but with proxy, I can't send.

Agent installed in host?
What type of agent did you defined in the item?

Best regards,
Ivan

And what are the errors, -vv switch?
Basically you must point your sender to proxy, not server. And you host must be assigned to given proxy in zabbix web interface.
