    Hello,
    What is the right procedure to create a proxy, in a zone, with only icmp proxying features (snmp discover should be left to netxms server itself) ?
    From the section "Setting communication options for zones" (doc https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/advanced.html) it seems i could set a default ICMP proxy, but from the netxms legacy client i cannot be so granular, i can only set a generic proxy in "Communication" -> "proxy nodes" zone property, that i suppose will do also snmp discover.
    Setting icmp proxy in node property instead works as expected, but this is not manageable with many nodes.
    My Agent Proxy config:

    # Log File
    LogFile=/var/log/nxagentd
    # IP white list, can contain multiple records separated by comma.
    # CIDR notation supported for subnets.
    MasterServers=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    SubAgent=ping.nsm

        Yes, setting proxy on a zone means that this proxy is used for everything - icmp, snmp, etc.

        Can you explain your use-case - why it's not desirable that proxy does snmp operations?

          Not a real use-case, reading the doc page i simply thought to scale using dedicated servers for snmp and ping.
