    ZabbixAgent2 Config File Proxies

    we are pushing Agent2 our to our devices. We have our Proxies in groups for all the different server groups. Instead of listing all the proxies in the config file, can we use the group they are in instead? then we wouldnt have to push new configs out if we add more proxies to that group.
    or is there a better way?

    In config fille you need to define proxies. not proxy group names. They are real hostnames, they are needed for communication, so you cannot use something like "Group for linux hosts"...

Also, while looking into related configuration options, I came across pvz fusion apk and wondered if there are any better ways to manage these updates dynamically.

      Yes, using proxy groups instead of listing individual proxies in each Agent2 configuration would be a cleaner and more scalable approach, if Agent2 supports referencing groups directly. That way, you can manage proxy membership centrally and avoid updating every device whenever you add or remove a proxy. I’d check whether the configuration supports group references or dynamic proxy discovery. If not, consider using a central configuration template or management system to generate and distribute configs automatically. This would reduce manual work and make future changes much easier.
