For the sake of testing the layer 3 dependencies properly I have connected a
test router to our network, created some subnets on that routers and put some
devices in those subnets. Zenoss did load all information from the routing
tables correctly and the network map was accurate.
I then shut down the test router and Zenoss created a Status/Ping ip is down
event for the router and all devices connected to that router.
It seems like the layer 3 dependencies do not work at all. Zenoss could of
known that if the routers goes down all devices in at least the directly
connected subnets will be down as well and suppress those events.
This is rather disappointing, can anyone shed some light on this.
The Zenoss core product page states :

dependencies
