    Update FreeBSD Template to Support Agent2

    Hello all,

    Please take a look at what it would take to update the FreeBSD template to support Agent2. I am deploying Agent2 where I can and right now my OPNsense firewalls(FreeBSD 13.2) supports the OG agent. I would also love to see a real Active agent for FreeBSD, so its on par with other OS.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Ohh and one additional thing to look at. Please use the same terminology across templates. For example CPU utilization on Linux servers does NOT mean the same thing on FreeBSD servers. Please see attached screenshot, where it shows that I cannot monitor OPNsense firewall CPU utilization in the top 10, bc the template line items corresponding to CPU utilization are different. This means I need to create a second widget to monitor the firewalls.

      I think the naming scheme for Zabbix OOTB templates is not very consistent, indeed. I've seen some name changes between Zabbix versions that I found to be unnecessary.
      So, I would advise against relying on OOTB templates.
      Make a copy of the templates you need and customize them to suit your needs.

        That makes alot of sense...thanks for offering that up. Never thought about updating a cloned template to what I need from it.
