Is there a reason why you monitor all user ports in IM? I usually only "display" the uplink ports. Ifdown generates a warning I believe and sends an notification with the name of the port.
Is that what you are asking? -------------- Andrey Khomyakov | Senior Network Engineer | +1.617.879.5945 Confidentiality Note: This e-mail, and any attachment to it, is intended to be confidential and might be legally privileged.

The application I have for this feature is as follows: We typically have multiple uplink ports per switch, so monitoring the device is not completely effective. We are running Splunk to capture all syslog events, and every time a user turns on or off their computer we get messages indicating that a port is up or down. It would be nice to no longer trap for ports up or down on the device as I cannot discriminate as to what ports I want to watch. Ideally, I would like Intermapper to detect the loss of only the uplink ports to a switch and to send a SNMPT trap notification to Splunk to record the event. If there is a way to do this, I would appreciate some pointers. Otherwise, this would be a nice feature in future releases.
