The answer to Question 1 is to have one object which is the 1st hop away from your machine and configure you UP dependencies.
Up dependencies are where a machine is only checked if the machine it is up dependant on is also up. eg WUGmon----Cisco----remotesys if remote sys is UP dependant on Cisco and the connection between WUGmon and Cisco goes down, WUG will no longer check remotesys or notify you that it is down. It will only notify you Cisco is down (if configured). Paul -----Original Message----- From: Joe Reynolds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 12 September 2002 15:06 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Basic Operation Questions I have WhatsUpGold installed on a Windows 2000 machine that is connected to the internet via a cable hookup. It is monitoring several remote machines on our business network, and at this time we are only checking if the network machines and/or routers are up. We have notifications to send emails and beeper notifications if a device is down. 1. It appears that if the cable connection on our machine running WhatsUpGold goes down then alerts are sent for all devices we are monitoring, even though those devices may be up and running. Is there a way to bypass the sending of alerts if the machine running WUG loses connectivity? 2. We have a single modem on the monitoring machine and it looks like only the first beeper notification is successful if a number of monitored devices go down at the same time. Is this normal? Is there any way around this, other than perhaps having longer trigger times for the beeper alerts to be sent?
