Overview
Zabbix web service is a process that is used for communication with external web services.

- The default values reflect process defaults, not the values in the shipped configuration files;
- Zabbix supports configuration files only in UTF-8 encoding without BOM;
- Comments starting with "#" are only supported at the beginning of the line.
