    How do I create a 'Host Prototype' in Zabbix 7.0.27?

    I was following an online tutorial on how to create hosts from auto-discovered storage, which requires using 'Host Prototypes' (主机原型). However, I couldn't find the 'Host Prototypes' button as described in the tutorial — I only found 'Host Templates' (主机模板). Could any expert guide me on this?

    A template 'lives' on a host, that host receives data > which is input for the template > this input can be processed by discovery rule and that can create host prototypes

    You need to dive into LLD (low level discovery)

        "Oh my god, I spent an entire day searching for 'Host Prototype', only to find it was right in front of me all along — it was just translated into Chinese as 'Host Template'! Please unify and standardize the naming conventions."
