So, I have a server I'm monitoring via SNMP. There was a problem with it and as
a result it stopped responding to SNMP requests. Currently InterMapper treats
this as an Alarm, but does not list the device as down.

This sort of goes against the logic used in other probes. For most of the other
probes no response to that probe type generates a device down. But the SNMP
probes will only alarm as long as that device is still pingable.

Seems like this should at least be a preference item; "Treat 'No SNMP Response'
as Down."

Paging on alarms generates a lot more traffic than paging on down. Hence the
request...

Does this make sense? Is there another/better way that I'm not thinking of?
