Changelog¶

[1.0.0] - Initial Release¶

API fixes
Permission fixes
Database migration fixes for NetBox 4.2.x and lower
Fixed logic in determining if an host can be synced to Zabbix
Fixed bug where templates with HTTP agent items required any interface, whilst it should be None
Fixed issue where sorting the ZabbixServerAssignmentObjectViewTable on the 'Sync status' column caused an exception
Fixed issue where sorting on the 'Inherited From' column on the ZabbixInheritedAssignmentTable caused an exception
Fixed bug where Maintenace windows were to be synced whilst the data wasn't complete

None

Implemented logic to use dns_name for the Zabbix Configuration Group assigned Host Interfaces (#37)
Implemented the synchronization of the Description field from NetBox to Zabbix (#36)
Implemented a checkbox on the Zabbix Host Interface that controls wether the SNMP Community/AuthPass/PrivPass is pushed onto the host (<1.0.2 default behaviour) or not and use the Zabbix inheritance logic ([#30])
Implemented new settings to sync the NetBox type and ID to Zabbix as tag: 'attach_objtag' (bool; default True) to enable/disable the tag to be synced; 'objtag_type' to determine the name of the tag that contains the NetBox type and 'objtag_id' to specify the name of the tag that contains the NetBox ID (#5)

Fixed bug where the 'Zabbix Sync Hosts job' tried to sync ZabbixConfigurationGroups, only to run into an exception (#38)
Fixed bug where the object assignment field weren't visible on the Zabbix Macro assignment and Zabbix Host Interface forms, due to translation issues and how this was handled (#39)
The lat/long fields on Host Inventory had a strict limit of 16 characters. Whilst correct, this restricted the use of jinja2 syntax. So, this limit has been lifted to 30 characters, which should be sufficient (#35)
api/plugins/nbxsync/zabbixhostinterface/ returned an error when a ZabbixConfigurationGroup has a ZabbixHostInterface assigned; not anymore
Fixed an issue where only 1 default and 1 non-default Host interface of the same type could be configured (it should be possible to assign multiple non-default interfaces) (#40)
Fixed issue where the 'search' API call toward Zabbix was used, whilst 'filter' should be used (#46)
Fixed issue where the 'display string' of an object was used, and not the 'name' field. This results in unexpected behaviour when asset tags are configured on devices (#47)
Solved issue to ensure the plugin works with NetBox 3.5.0 (#44)

None

Implemented a new API endpoint to trigger the synchronization of a device/vm/vdc to Zabbix

Initiating a synchronization is done by POSTing against this endpoint, with the obj_type and obj_id as data. The obj_id is the ID of the obj_type that should be synchronized.

For example: curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer <netbox token>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" http://<netbox>>/api/plugins/nbxsync/zabbixsync/ --data '{"obj_type": "device", "obj_id": 1}' Possible obj_types: device, virtualmachine, virtualdevicecontext
Implemented logic to handle the addition of new default Zabbix Host interfaces / changes of Zabbix Host Interfaces (#57)
Added support for the 'Max Repetition' field on SNMP Host Interfaces (customer request)
Implemented the 'sync_enabled' field on Zabbix Server, Zabbix Proxy, Zabbix Proxy Groups and Zabbix Server Assignments control if/what is synchronized to Zabbix (#66)
Implemented the 'skip_version_check' field on Zabbix Server to disable checking on supported Zabbix versions (#74)
Rewrite the handling of ZabbixConfigurationGroups to work asynchronous and not synchronous; this avoids locking the UI for users when a large number of devices are assigned to a ZabbixConfigurationGroup and a update is applied
Added links to the Zabbix frontend on the Zabbix Ops view, so operators can easily jump between NetBox and Zabbix for troubleshooting (#71)

Added the field 'snmpv3_authentication_protocol' to the API for Zabbix Host Interfaces (#61)
Updated the field label on Zabbix Proxy Groups (not 'Vendor' but 'Failover delay')
Fixed logic for Active Zabbix Proxies with a Zabbix Proxy Group set, to include the local_address field (#59)
Fixed issue where templates with items of the type 'script' depended on a SNMP Host interface; this is wrong - it should be None. (#56)
Fixed issue (again!) where the 'display string' of an object was used, and not the 'name' field. This results in unexpected behaviour when asset tags are configured on devices (#47)
Fixed typo in Netbox permissions (#62)
Implemented logic to first synchronize host interfaces based in the usage (default/non default) to avoid errors (#57)
Adjusted the 'can_sync' filter so host synchronization only can be triggered if a default host interface exists (#57)
Fixed issue where the 'snmp_macro' macro was pushed multiple times when the same HostInterface Type (SNMP) was configured, resulting in errors (#57)
Fixed issue that prevented synchronization of hosts to Zabbix when more than one Host Group was assigned in Netbox (#68)
