Let me That would be the "Main Interface" attribute for a host. Set that to reachability interface (which does the pings) and if that is down then everything else it won't bother with. A loopback interface may be useful for this too. Or at least set it to something, anything! It means for a particular host the poller will only try the DMII and if that fails won't bother with anything else. It's a real good idea for anyone if you have a large number of devices to use DMII. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU/Linux, software should be Free ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ jffnms-users mailing list jffnms-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jffnms-users
