<h1 id="what-is-zabbix-">What is Zabbix?</h1>
<p>Zabbix is an enterprise-class open source distributed monitoring solution.</p>
<p>Zabbix is software that monitors numerous parameters of a network and the health and integrity of servers. Zabbix uses a flexible notification mechanism that allows users to configure e-mail based alerts for virtually any event. This allows a fast reaction to server problems. Zabbix offers excellent reporting and data visualisation features based on the stored data. This makes Zabbix ideal for capacity planning.</p>
<p>For more information and related downloads for Zabbix components, please visit <a href="https://hub.docker.com/u/zabbix/">https://hub.docker.com/u/zabbix/</a> and <a href="https://zabbix.com">https://zabbix.com</a></p>
<h1 id="what-is-the-image-">What is the image?</h1>
<p>The image is used to receive SNMP traps, store them to a log file and provide access to Zabbix to collected SNMP trap messsages.</p>
<h1 id="zabbix-snmptraps-images">Zabbix snmptraps images</h1>
<p>These are the only official Zabbix snmptraps Podman images. Images are updated when new releases are published.</p>
<h1 id="how-to-use-this-image">How to use this image</h1>
<h2 id="start-zabbix-snmptraps-">Start <code>zabbix-snmptraps</code></h2>
<p>Start a Zabbix snmptraps container as follows:</p>
<pre><code>podman <span class="hljs-keyword">run</span><span class="bash"> --name some-zabbix-snmptraps -p 162:1162/udp <span class="hljs-_">-d</span> zabbix/zabbix-snmptraps:tag</span>
</code></pre><p>Where <code>some-zabbix-snmptraps</code> is the name you want to assign to your container and <code>tag</code> is the tag specifying the version you want. See the list above for relevant tags, or look at the <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/zabbix/zabbix-snmptraps/tags/">full list of tags</a>.</p>
