NetBox ↔ Zabbix Sync

NetBox ↔ Zabbix Sync is a synchronization script that keeps devices and virtual machines in Zabbix aligned with their source of truth in NetBox.

The script queries NetBox for devices and/or virtual machines and ensures corresponding hosts exist and are updated in Zabbix. It can create, update, and maintain host configuration based on structured data stored in NetBox.
