Clearing Alerts
by mal＠platinumnetworks.com.au 28 Mar '18

28 Mar '18

Hi all - I have created my very first alert checker and can see that it creates and alert according to the checker criteria. My checker looks for speed on a port and alerts if ge 100M. >From what I can see, once that alert has been created I do not have the ability to 'clear' the alert so even if the port speed drops below 100M the alert remains in failed state and if the checker criteria are met again a new alert is not created. My use case is that I need to monitor the bandwidth utilisation on this specific port on an ongoing basis and be alerted each time the speed exceeds say 100M. Appreciate any pointers to show me where I am going wrong. Cheers Mal

Switch ports disappearing

Hi all, I've a TP-Link T2600-28TS whose ports are continuously detected and then deleted after 2-10 minutes: this happens about every 6 hours, while other switches in the same environment does have normal behaviour. Of course the switch does operate normally all the time. 2018-03-24 18:45:38Interface was marked as DELETED2018-03-24 18:38:55Interface DELETED mark removed2018-03-24 12:45:39Interface was marked as DELETED2018-03-24 12:38:44Interface DELETED mark removed2018-03-24 06:41:37Interface was marked as DELETED2018-03-24 06:39:44Interface DELETED mark removed2018-03-24 00:45:43Interface was marked as DELETED2018-03-24 00:38:49Interface DELETED mark removed2018-03-23 18:50:39Interface was marked as DELETED2018-03-23 18:39:30Interface DELETED mark removed Any ideas?

FW: Defining Groups
by mal＠platinumnetworks.com.au 24 Mar '18

24 Mar '18

Thanks Adam – Have updated to rolling (9128) and can see the groups is now different but I am still not seeing any members in my group ☹. I am thinking that the ruleset itself is not working because I created another group that does work using “device.hostname match *qld*”. Is the ruleset definition ‘port.port_descr_descr match *L3*’ correct if I want all ports with a parsed description including L3? My port description is something like… CUST: ABC Cust (Channel Wireless L3)…….. I was expecting the ruleset to match on *L3* and return results including L3.
