Dependencies are between devices 'within' a map, so to do what you want
you need to place a copy of the router on Map B and create
the dependency there between Router and Switch.
Currently dependencies do not span maps.
This means that you will have to poll the copy as
well.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Inter-Map Dependencies?

Hi all!
 
I'm new to the list, so I apologize if this question has been asked before.  I was wondering if there was any way to prevent a device on one map from alerting if a device on another map was down.  Here's the basic setup:
 
Map A
---------
Router -> Subnet (Map B)
 
 
Map B
---------
Switch
 
 
So can I keep the switch on map B from alerting if I already know that the Router is down (WhatsUp has to ping through this router.)
 
 
 
Thanks,
Dave
