 Description   

I would like to request something which can limit the accepted data to zabbix trapper. Something like currently available whitelist for IP/DNS but for controlling the data flow.

Reason for that is ... a user can create a custom script which we can't control but we would like to prevent overloading of zabbix server/proxy by setting a trapper flow limit,
like accept 1 value per minute... or 5 values per 2 minutes... or something similar.

Hello,

 

I would like to request something which can limit number of accepted data to zabbix trapper. Something like whitelist for IP/DNS and the same for accepting data.

 

Reason for that is ... user can create a custom script which we can' control and in this case I can prevent overloading zabbix server/proxy by setting on trapper item limit like accept data only once in 1 minute... or 5 in 2 minutes... or something similiar...

 

Thanks
