The Agent is used for active data collection, while the Proxy is used for proxy data collection.<\/li>\n<li>Set up Zabbix Agent or Zabbix Proxy by configuring monitoring parameters such as the monitored host, port, and metrics in the configuration file of the Agent or Proxy.<\/li>\n<li>Adding a host in Zabbix Server involves adding the host that needs to be monitored, setting the IP address, hostname, and type of Agent or Proxy for the host.<\/li>\n<li>Create monitoring items: Create monitoring items in the Zabbix Server to define the metrics that need to be monitored, such as CPU utilization, memory usage, and disk space.<\/li>\n<li>Create a trigger: Create a trigger in the Zabbix Server, which will define when to trigger an alert when a monitored item reaches a certain threshold.<\/li>\n<li>Setting up an action: create an action in the Zabbix Server to define the operations to be executed when a trigger is activated, such as sending emails or SMS messages.<\/li>\n<li>Check monitoring data: You can view monitoring data, including the values of monitoring items and the status of triggers, on the monitoring page of the Zabbix Server.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>By following the above steps, it is possible to collect and monitor data from the host, quickly identify and resolve issues, and ensure the stability and reliability of the system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zabbix is an open-source network monitoring tool that collects and monitors data through Zabbix Agent and Zabbix Proxy.
