That's the point: If the interfaces that are 'admin down'/'link down' turn OK in Opsview, you'd be able to "tick" all interfaces when adding a host (switch/router) and won't have to "tick" it if a port gets configured 'admin enabled' and connected. Also if a host is removed, the port gets configured 'admin down' and cable is disconnected, it wouldn't be necessary to reconfigure the host and "untick" the interface monitoring. To put it in a short sentence: I'd like the Opsview status of a monitored port to be non-OK *only* if the 'links status' and 'admin status' differ. -- kind regards, Henry _______________________________________________ Opsview-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opsview.org/lists/listinfo/opsview-users
