I'm using Zenoss 2.3 (Community) as an NMS for the monitoring of 500+ devices 
and servers, some of them being reachable via internet. the problem I'm having 
is that when something goes wrong all the staff receives thousands of email 
alerts (one of each device actually, that is not in the topology) - I'd really 
like to limit the amount of email to just a minimum
I started to try implementing what's described in this tutorial :
http://www.zenoss.com/Members/netdata/create-manual-device-dependencys

But I just can't implement this on all of our distant hosts (the routes may be 
updated, the number of inbetween routers may vary, et caetera), as most of the 
distant sites are connected through DSL lines with totally different routes.

Now my question is : Is there a way to define device dependency in that context 
without spending the rest of my life adding intermediate hosts and adding 
routes for each of them? is there a way to cheat so these sites were considered 
as directly connected to a host ?

Thanks fo any advice/suggestion
