While Zabbix always holds a special place in our hearts for monitoring, today I want to introduce something different. I've been getting requests from customers about how to monitor their applications, and for that, you typically need an Application Performance Monitor (APM), or as it's sometimes fancily called, an "Observability Tool."

Good morning, everyone! It's Dimitri Bellini, and welcome back to my channel, Quadrata, where we explore the fascinating world of open source and IT. This week, I'm revisiting a topic that frequently comes up in my work: SNMP monitoring with Zabbix. There have been some significant updates in recent Zabbix versions, especially regarding how SNMP is handled, so I wanted to share a recap and dive into these new features.

I apologize for missing last week; work had me on the move. But I'm back, and with the recent release of Zabbix 7.4, I thought it was the perfect time to revisit a powerful feature: Low-Level Discovery (LLD). There's an interesting new function in 7.4 that I want to discuss, but first, let's get a solid understanding of what LLD is all about.

Good morning everyone, and welcome back! It's Dimitri Bellini here on Quadrata, your channel for open-source tech insights. Today, we're diving back into the world of Zabbix, specifically tackling what many consider a 'black beast': SNMP monitoring.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is incredibly common for monitoring network devices like routers and switches (think Mikrotik, Cisco), but it's also used for applications and servers running SNMP daemons. Zabbix comes packed with pre-built templates for many SNMP devices, which makes life easy – apply the template, set a few parameters, and data starts flowing. But what happens when you have a device with no template, or you only have the manufacturer's MIB file? That's when things get trickier, and you need to build your monitoring from scratch.
