LOL...small world.
The problems is that I have customers who are multihomed. They have more than
one connection to us and often they're doing BGP as well. In creating my maps,
I've started out with our upstream connections, then mapped all core couter
interfaces and border router interfaces. A customer connection will be
monitored with ICMP, snmp if they want, but then I have to create a single map
for every connection. My preference would be to have one map with all their
connections and services so a tech support person can see right away what
services they have. If I make a map, it has to have the name of the icon they
are connected to...then another connection cannot be named in that first map to
link to another router. Does that make sense?
I'll have to figure out how to get around no dependencies between maps, because
I don't want to get pages about every single customer link if a big
border should fail.
