TCP socket states and connection stats are collected by ss and netstat commands, then sent by zabbix sender.

Installation

1. Import the TCP stats template to zabbix and link it to the zabbix host.
2. Copy the TCP stats script to the host in /usr/local/bin .
3. Copy TCP stats zabbix agent configuration to /etc/zabbix-agent/zabbix_agentd.d and restart zabbix agent.

Note:

• Zabbix sender uses zabbix agent configuration to send the metrics, please check the hostname is set in the zabbix agent config /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf, by default the hostname may be commented out.
• The script may take longer to run on a busy server, increase the timeout limit "timeout=" on zabbix agent configuration "/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf" will allow the script to finish.
