I want to monitor PMG through Zabbix agent (5.0.2). The Zabbix server doesn't receive any data from PMG. I suspect a firewall problem as port 10050 has to be opened on the monitored device. What is the procedure to open a port on PMG firewall (if any ?).
Many thanks for your help.
 
Hello,

if you did not create rules in Datacenter --> Firewall by yourself there are probably no restrictions. At least for me there is an empty output and all policies are ACCEPT:

Code:
~# iptables -L -n

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Then make sure that zabbix-agent is running and listening an the right interface. My agent is simply listening on all interfaces:

Code:
~# ss -tl | grep zabbix
LISTEN   0        128              0.0.0.0:zabbix-agent          0.0.0.0:*     
LISTEN   0        128                 [::]:zabbix-agent             [::]:*

Thanks for the tips. Zabbix agent status was not responding. I did check with another item (Swap space) and everything is OK.
 
when you install the zabbix agent you need to put on the zabbix server first the template linux OS then wait a few mins should appear
