Steve, I accomplish something similar by polling bytes in and bytes out of switch ports. You could consider any port that has passed no traffic for a month un-patch eligible.

That is an interesting question. Let me know what you come up with if you do find a solution.

I know I can print out an event report to see when ports are up and down, but I would like to get a report that will show the daily, weekly, and monthly status. Can I create an event report in Whatsup Gold to show me that data? Its seems I can really only can create availability reports, RTT reports etc. I am trying to consolidate switches in my closets so if I have a port that is down for a month I can un-patch it.
