We're evaluating Zabbix for use where we have clusters of workstations (mostly Windows boxes, 3-10 per cluster) deployed at multiple (between 100 and 1000) customer sites where we have little control over their WAN configuration except that we can assume each workstation has the ability to establish NAT'd outbound connections on port 80 since that's already what HTTP typically uses. We'd like to deploy Zabbix such that each workstation at each site is responsible for pushing its own monitoring data back to the Zabbix server at HQ via inbound connections initiated by each machine as we'll not be able to initiate outbound connections from the server since they'd be blocked at the customer's firewall. We do *not* want to require each customer to have to open ports in their firewalls for us. Is this something Zabbix can do w/o requiring much surgery? |
