In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Configuring Zabbix for VMware
- Monitoring VMware
- Installing a proxy
- Setting up an active proxy
- Setting up a passive proxy
- Monitoring hosts through a proxy
- Monitoring the proxy
In bigger companies, monitoring will involve virtual machines, machines in DMZ and machines in other locations including other parts of the world.
To help you out with these problems, this chapter will teach you to set up VMware monitoring in Zabbix and also explain you how to set up proxies and use them.
