      Hello Team,

      I just need some clarification regarding the active agent auto registration feature.

      I understand that for active agent auto registration feature, Active checking is mandatory in the  agent configuration file. So I have the below line in my Linux zabbix agent conf file.

      ServerActive= Zabbix server IP

      But I prefer to go with passive checking ( polling by the zabbix server not the active method ) once the agent registration is completed. What is the best way to accomplish this. Because once the agent is registered in zabbix console, I do not want the active checking to be done ( because of bandwidth and individual server perf ) and need passive checking.

      So I should use only "Server" entry in agent conf and remove "ServerActive". If we keep "ServerActive" and "Server" both in agent conf, what will take precedence ( active or passive )

      Any help is greatly appreciated to understand the logic.
