Is that really necessary? If you use the "parents" option, devices behind the main one that is down will show as unreachable. I think you could then just acknowledge the main device that shows "down". This of course assumes everything in that building is behind one device. If not, you might have to acknowledge each of the main devices, but if you do it right, you shouldn't have to acknowledge _all_ switches/routers, just the few that everything else sits behind. I mapped out my network tree on paper first. Then I check the statusmap.cgi to see that my config matches how I think it should look. scot ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
