I have a setup where the netxms server is outside of a network and we monitor several clients servers. If have opened port 4700 on the firewall. I have been able to setup the netxms agent on one of the servers to act as a proxy for Snmp that is inside the network. We then have a second server setup which is just using snmp. This works fine,we can collect statistics etc and be notified of issues with a specific server.
The problem happens when we try to send a trap from the server that is not the proxy agent. If I setup the trap destination as the proxy agent, it does not get forwarded to the netxms server outside the network. If I set the Snmp trap destination as the netxms server, we get a trap, but it looks like it came from the server that is the agent and not the real server.
Any ideas on how to set this up better?
Thnx.
