Hi, Just wondering if anyone on list has run into issues where their routed Metro-E links will sometimes stay up as the mux isn't properly downing the interface ( cheap gear without interface tracking per se) when the circuit goes down. Pinging the interface doesn't really apply in this situation as there is routed dark fiber links for backup connectivity. I was thinking along the lines of an EEM script to source pings from the connected interface and see if its up and send an SNMP but I haven't had time to script it. I really don't need to accomlish anything fancy - just an alarm so the NOC can see it and report it to us.
Researching the SNMP MIB but there didn't seem to be anything available. I had run into this issue in the past but I was doing BGP over the link which obviously offers the neighbor down snmp trap.Honestly, I'd prefer to have the provider resolve the issue on their gear but given the aggressive pricing of the circuit I'm not sure I have much recourse. Appreciate the feedback.
