Monitoring through SNMP

[dibypaul]

I need to monitor the client systems via SNMP traps through zabbix.
The idea is that for all system related monitoring the zabbix server should receive SNMP traps from the client machines and the relevant data should be visible in the UI.

I have configured snmptrapd and SNMPTT to receive snmp traps in zabbix server. Now I understand that the System related monitoring is to be done via MIBs. I am using RHEL OS. I am able to list all the system related data through SNMP walk.


My question here is:
1. how do configure the client machines to send system monitoring snmptraps automatically?

2. Does Zabbix has the capability to do this? Or do I need to write some additional script?

Any help on this will be appreciated.

what systems are the noes that you want to send traps from ?

regarding your question 2 - sure, zabbix can do that, and you say that you already have it configured
