Just a question, Zenoss is supposed to handle layer 3 dependencies... if 
it has route info. Can you see the links for these routers in the 
network map? It might be a bug, but I really don't think you are 
supposed to need to do this sort of manual transforms for a router going 
down, as long as Zenoss knows about the routers and their internal 
routing tables...
