Feature to select different proxy for interface in Host config

[r0k]

Hi,

is there a way to monitor a single Host via different proxies.

Example:

Monitor HostA:

Agent: no proxy
IPMI: proxyA

I assume most people have IPMI at least on a different VLAN.

Currently I only see two options.

Have two Host configurations, one for Agent and one for IPMI.
Have a mutlihomed proxy in both networks for Agent and IPMI.

Cheers,
Oliver

Hello, there is indeed feature request for your case:

https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-1411

At least you're not the first bumped into that

Does not seem to be a popular one...

Your description of the scenario reads like nothing has a route out of its local network.

Thanks. Hard to believe that people have either a flat network structure or they create multiple host entries for the same machine...

they create multiple host entries for the same machine...

I think I see what you mean now. Yes, we treat [for example] a Proxmox host and the iDRAC card for that host, as separate hosts in Zabbix. It was the talk of proxies that threw me off the scent.
