you need to put in the config files of the nodes connected to the switch that
the switch is a parent device. I do not have the syntax in front of me, but I
think it is just
parent <device name>

Subject: [Nagios-users] Alerting
Now, I know this can be done but here is the question.
Say our core switch goes down, I obviously don't want to be alerted about every
single device that has subsequently gone down as well. I know since the core
is down, everything is down. How do I setup these types of relationships so
alerting is dependent other another object being up.
I would get alerts because we are using a SMS gateway and it would be able to
send SMS messages to our cellphones.
Thanks
