Title: Annoying pppX adapters
Post by: raypetter on February 12, 2014, 04:30:02 PM
Hi

I'm using netxms to monitor our fw. However when someone uses vpn, a new ppp adapter appears. This causes a notification in netxms which is fine. However when I try to <IGNORE> the adapter, it respawns with the next vpn user and another notification is shown. It seems that PPP1 one day is not the same PPP1 the next day.

Any tips on how to ignore these adapters are welcome. I'd like to keep the functionality of a notification when a new adapter appears, but ignore the ppp adapters on the fw.

Hi!

Simplest solution would be to add rule like this at the top of event processing policy:

source: firewall node
event: SYS_IF_ADDED

action: stop event processing

Best regards,
Victor
