hi, i have installed netxm and i have added some cisco 3750 switchs. On interface down policy i have configured an email alarm.

The problem is that now i receive a lot of email when users shutdown their pc. Can i create (and how) a policy to monitor only some ports?

thanks

Hi,

you can use filtering script. If you are handling SYS_IF_DOWN event then parameters of the event will be following:

1) Interface object ID
2) Interface name
3) Interface IP address
4) Interface netmask
5) Interface index

They are accessible within script via $event->parameters[n]. For example, to process only events for interfaces Ge0/0 and Ge0/2:


ifName = $event->parameters[2];
return (ifName == "Ge0/0") || (ifName == "Ge0/2");


Best regards,
Victor
