Version 6.2.7 OS Ubuntu 22.04

Description

Zabbix is an open-source monitoring tool that is used to monitor servers, networks, IT components, cloud services, and virtual machines. The Zabbix monitoring tool is used to provide monitoring metrics and monitor network usage, disk space consumption, and CPU load.
