I'm currently attempting to write a discovery script that won't care what kind of cmts it is. It would take an mib from the $param variable for whatever device I need to check and match the output against the next comma separated value in $param for that device's specific interface type (ie an upstream interface) then return each interface that matches. Then the poller groups would take care of the rest. Is this how it should be written? And/or is there already something that will do this for me that is built into JFFNMS? > > - Craig > -- Thanks for replying, I appreciate your help. I'm trying to talk my boss into using this software over some commercial software that does half as much in twice the amount of time, not to mention the flexibility that open source offers. If we can get this going soon, that will prove my point Thanks, Kory ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
