Hi,
I am monitoring all the ports on our switches to see if and when hardware is added or removed via the state change of the interface.
These are named after the portnumber so the alarm state for example "Interface "33" unexpectedly changed state..."
What is the best and most correct way to add alias to ports since i want to add room/local network alias to the interface port so i know where or who it is.
Change object name does not work since it updates when polling back to port number, change port name on the switch does not work it wont send that when snmp is polling.
Now i am looking into the custom attribute to set that and if you can use data from these in the alarm message, still trying to find info about how custom attributes are used though.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
