Zabbix Web Monitoring without interfaces

I want to send HTTP request to a website where I can't deploy a Zabbix agent. I can only access the website via HTTP / HTTPS.

I created a host, but I had to setup a false interface (I wrote Zabbix Agent / the website DNS and port 10050). Consequently, the status is "Red" as Zabbix Server cannot connect to the agent.

How can I set up an agent without any interfaces, or more precisely, without triggering a "Red" status on the host ? In my situation, is there any way to get a "Green" status on the host ?

Zabbix version : 3.2.11

Solution

  • At least one interface is mandatory. Using 127.0.0.1 the status is Enabled, green. I'm using Zabbix 4 here.

    dummy interface

    host status
