Zabbix is an open-source network monitoring system that can monitor the status, performance, and traffic of switches through the SNMP protocol. If you have a large number of switches to monitor, you can use Zabbix's auto-discovery feature to add switches in bulk. Here are a few steps you need:
Configure the SNMP protocol on the switch and set parameters such as the community name, version, and target host. You can refer to the example in this post, which shows how to configure SNMP on an H3C switch.
Install the SNMPWALK tool on the Zabbix server to verify that the SNMP protocol is working properly. You can use commandssnmpwalk -v 2c -c community-name switch IPIf the switch information can be returned, the SNMP protocol has been enabled.
Create a discovery rule on the Zabbix web client and specify parameters such as IP range, discovery mode, and SNMP OID. You can refer to the screenshot in this article, which shows how to create a discovery rule on the Zabbix web client.
Create an action on the Zabbix web client, define trigger conditions, operation details, and more. You can set actions to add hosts, add to host groups, link to templates, and more. You can refer to the screenshot in this article, which shows how to create an action on the Zabbix web client.
View the automatic discovery in monitoring on the Zabbix web client to see if any switches are discovered and added. You can refer to the screenshot in this article, which shows how to view autodiscovery on the Zabbix web client.
The above is the general steps to add switches in bulk from Zabbix, I hope it will be helpful to you.
