The scripts would need to be triggered during the device setup process and should communicate with the Zabbix server to register the appropriate monitoring entities.

Implement scripts for device registration: Another option is to develop scripts that run on each device and register their own items when they are set up. These scripts can utilize the Zabbix API to dynamically create items, triggers, and other monitoring entities.
