Hi,

I'm currently planing to use Zabbix as our monitoring solution. With pleasure I have noticed, that there is a zabbix-proxy plugin, which I could use to monitor some remote offices (where OPNsense is the firewall).

My Questions is related to the CARP / HA Setup and the zabbix-proxy. Do I configure the zabbix-proxy to listen on the CARP interface or do I configure both firewalls as a proxy and implement two proxys in my zabbix server? I would prefer one zabbix-proxy from the zabbix-server view. Doesn't madder if I have to configure two "standalone" proxys or two with CARP functionality.

Hope someone has experience with this topic and can give some hints.

Regards,
Julian
