Here we describe how to use SMSEagle for Zabbix SMS alerts. The configuration is very straightforward – it should take you about 5 min to have it up and running.
SMSEagle is an offline hardware SMS gateway. Therefore no external connection to 3rd party system is required. All notifications are generated on-premise and sent directly to a cellular network. This solution can be used in secure installations without Internet access.
1. Download latest version of Zabbix script media_smseagle.yaml from our repository: https://bitbucket.org/proximus/smseagle-zabbix-v2/downloads/
1. In the Administration > Media types section, import the media_smseagle.yaml file.
2. Open the newly added SMSEagle media type and replace all <PLACEHOLDERS> with your values.
The following parameters are required:
access_token – API access token created in SMSEagle
url – actual URL of your SMSEagle device (for example: http://10.10.0.100 or https://sms.mycompany.com)
3. in the Administration > Users click on a User, and add a new media called SMSEagle. Enter SMS recipient. Available recipient formats:
Phone number: phone_number
Contact in SMSEagle Phonebook: contact_name:c
Group in SMSEagle Phonebook: group_name:g
That’s it! 😊
