I would agree.

We use hundreds of devices that have multiple T1's or other type
connections between them and an option to treat a down link as a down
condition would be very beneficial.

Subject: [IM-Talk] Link Down - Up/Down or Critical?

Should a link going down be treated as a Critical (or a Warning as it is
by default), or as a Down condition?

With a redundant network, you can have a link go down and routing switch
to another path so there's no device down indication.  Also, a link down
as Critical (or Warning) gets hidden in all the other Critical events
such as RX errors or discards.  We've upped the critical thresholds so
that the only critical notifiier we get is for a link down.   

We would like a link going down to be treated as a Down Condition with
the Down visual alert of a flashing icon and a Down Notifier.

Anyone else think a link down should be a higher priority?  Maybe the
option to treat a link down as Down?
