      The page still lists, for example, "agent" entry for Timeout, while in 7.0 we manage "agent" timeout in frontend too
      https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/7.0/en/manual/web_interface/frontend_sections/administration/general#timeouts

      It looks like that global agent's settings in Frontend unconditionally override setting in .conf, so maybe it should not be listed there.

      Actually whole description should be reviewed, as Web services and SNMP is also managed in frontend.

      So, clarification is needed.

      This also have point which can be clarified. Even title lacks to emphasize that Global timeout affected a lot:
