Basically, fix the software. It isn't that hard to do; Cricket (among others) has managed to handle it for 10+ years. There will always be cases where instance numbers change, so you might as well go ahead and deal with it. For Nagios, I use a plugin wrapper that can walk a specified tree, cache the tree, match the desired value, and then call another plugin with the instance number. -- Chris Adams <[email protected]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
