I am currently going through a Zabbix course at Udemy. Your videos are SO much better than those. You actually explain WHY things work the way they do, cover a few alternative behaviors, and help us to translate your examples into our own experience. The Udemy course is all just "Click this, this this and this. Now it works." Thank you for making videos for people who need to use this in the real world!
Thank you Dmitry , very insightful lesson , zabbix is packed with alot of features to collect and manipulate data , I will need to apply your techniques in my lab , to grasp the core of your workshops - low level discovery and of cause RTFM . Thanks again for your valuable information and keep smiling :-) best regards Lance
Hi Dmitry, Thank you for this guide. I want to ask for data - I don't see any data in "latest data". How is it possible to insert some data into json and read them?
Great video! Thank you! I have a problem with LLD. I'm monitoring Mikrotik routers and my template generate lots of unwanted dinamic interfaces when someone login with VPN. These interfaces looks like "l2tp-simon.john" "sstp-brenda" whatever. How should is filtered or exclude from monitoring? I created some filter thats looks like "{#IFNAME} - does not match - sstp etc. but it seems its not working correctly. My goal is only monitoring static interfaces like ether1-28. If you have some advise to me, please let me know :) Thanks in advice!
Thank you, Dmitry. This is a good job. I am currently learning zabbix and I have a question. How can I automatically detect and add new docker containers on the host to monitoring via "Discovery" without using third-party scripts? What options are there?
Does Zabbix have any sort of "nested LLD" in SNMP LLD? For example, we have a router chassis, which may/may not have interface cards plugged in, so we create an LLD rule to discover them. For each discovered card there will be sub-elements (like network interfaces, processors, etc), but it depends on what cards has been discovered, because their OIDs are child from a parent OID which is the card discovered. For each discovered elements in cards, like network interfaces, may/may not have sub-metrics (like Tx/Rx power or transceiver temperature or CPU temperature), but it depends on what element has been discovered, because their OIDs are child from a parent OID which is the discovered element. never figured out how to do it.
Thank you very very much Sir Dmitry Lambert 🖤🖤🖤 Much appreciated. It covers LLD & Custom way to setup any type of data / monitoring. It was actually worth waiting for over 6+ months :D And apologies for making you talk more, longer than in the recent videos :)
@@zabbixtraining i need to monitor VPN sessoins for my fortigate router. Since sessions are dynamic I figured I needed some kind of discovery like you explained with drives and interfaces. Watching your video it left me with more questions than answers.

Thank you Dmitry, Good explanation, is it possible to have extension to this Low Level Discovery (LLD) to item, trigger and graph prototypes.
Hi Dmitry! What You would recommend as manual about writing LLD in custom templates? Official documentation is not clear in this question. Thanks!
Python?
Hi Dmitry, Thank you for this guide. I want to ask for data - I don't see any data in "latest data". How is it possible to insert some data into json and read them?
You can use scripts
Can I do this for Snmp instead of agent for all the oids on the host
Great video! Thank you!

Hi Dimitry could you please give an overview of host prototypes
What is not clear about them?
Дмитрий приятно и тут видеть и соответственно вопрос, а почему бы не рассмотреть кастомный вариант LLD , а не тупо по мануалу писать видос?
Поддерживаю! Лично мне было бы круто увидеть, как собирать LLD через агент и зависимые элементы данных, а то застопорился :)

I dont think that you will be able to determine that it is container with native discovery

never figured out how to do it.
Sounds like this one - support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-5398 And there is a bright hope that we will see it soon :)
How get the all valid values for a key in item prototypes? Like bytes, dropped, errors?

AWESOME. I've been struggle with his. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Glad I could help!

Thanks, Dmitry. This is the one I asked for ;)
Excellent video. I never thought of using filters or sender.
How to using LLD type snmp & cpu
Watch the video
zabbix_get -s 127.0.0.1 -k net.if.discovery
bash: zabbix_get: command not found...

Good comes with waiting )
totally confused
Why? :)

Start with something. You need oid for snmp tree which stores active vpn sessions ( if there is such )
