So if the DC firewall is unreachable, then dont alert on anything (hosts and services) above that... or if the DC switch is unreachable, then dont alert above that etc - cool - understand that. BUT: The thing is, the DC Firewall is reachable (ping) if the office-DC VPN is up or down... and so are the hosts (ping checks).. so what i really want todo is NOT alert on any services above the DC Firewall if the VPN is down. Any thoughts? Thanks Simon
