I am interested in this topic as well. I will use a simple example: server-------FWc--------(internet)---------FWm--------ZOS
server=192.168.1.34 FWc= public IP is 66.32.45.11 (this is just and example I have no idea who has this IP FWm= public IP is 76.43.182.10 (again, just an example) ZOS= zenoss server with IP 172.16.10.10 So, what I would like to do, is put the Zen modeling agents and all of that on a box behind FWc so I can monitor "server" and other devices on that network. I would like to have the Zenoss services connect to a database on box ZOS via tunnels that I can worry about. What I want to know is, what do I need to do to the monitoring box behind FWc and to the database on ZOS to make this happen? Ultimately, I would like to have FWc, FWc1, FWc2 etc, multiple remote networks monitored in the same way, so I wonder if I would need multiple databases (assuming some of my remote networks use the same IP addressing scheme and so might conflict) or is the Zenoss database able to handle multiple devices with the same IPs on different networks? As I said, I can handle tunnels, I can even handle doing multiple databases, though I would really like to be able to use one interface to monitor these various networks. What I most need help with in getting started is what do I do to set up the remote monitor box to send its data to mysql on another server? I have worked with some php web apps that use globals files to define database connections, is there something like that I should be looking for? > Is this a Zenoss question or networking question?
