    • None
    • 4.2.0alpha3
    • Frontend (F), Server (S)
    • None

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Set up a web scenario w/ the default useragent "Zabbix"
      2. Set up normal tcp[http]  monitoring of a computer
      3. Check the logs

      Result:
      See log file...

      "HEAD / HTTP/1.1" 502 3279 "-" "Zabbix ..."
"GET / HTTP/1.1" 502 3769 "-" "Zabbix"

      Expected:
      "HEAD / HTTP/1.1" 502 3279 "-" "Zabbix/4...."
      "GET / HTTP/1.1" 502 3769 "-" "Zabbix/4...."

       
      Specification for useragent: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/User-Agent
       
      Source code:

      src/libs/zbxsysinfo/simple/simple.c:	if (CURLE_OK != (err = curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, opt = CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Zabbix " ZABBIX_VERSION)) ||
src/libs/zbxmedia/eztexting.c:	if (CURLE_OK != (err = curl_easy_setopt(easy_handle, opt = CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Zabbix " ZABBIX_VERSION)) ||
src/zabbix_server/httppoller/httptest.c:	CURLE_OK != (err = curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, httptest->httptest.agent)) ||
      frontends/php/include/httptest.inc.php:	ZBX_DEFAULT_AGENT => 'Zabbix',

       
      The zabbix frontend and server are seen by users as a single platform, as such, the useragent for these two subcomponents should really be the same. And, it's a good idea for both sides to include a version number if only for debugging...
