Looking in the sourcecode (libs/zbxsysinfo/common/net.c) I suggest:

  1. add AAAA to resolv_querytype_t
  2. change inet_aton to inet_pton, test twice with AF_INIT and AF_INET6 and set sin_family accordingly

I'm sorry I can't program this for you, I hope you can do something with my suggestions.

 

By the way, the component must be Agent instead of Templates, sorry

Hello  Luitzen van Gorkum,

The possible values for type are:
ANY, A, NS, CNAME, MB, MG, MR, PTR, MD, MF, MX, SOA, NULL, WKS (except for Windows), HINFO, MINFO, TXT, SRV

It's not bug, but this can be a useful feature and we will move this ticket to the ZBXNEXT

Regards, Elina
