I have just updated to version 0.16.10.8150, but I still don’t get the ifAlias.

This is how my telegram alerts look like:

ALERT : Port down

Device: osxxxx-xxx

Entity: Port 21

Device Uptime: 242 days, 9h 54m 10s

More information: http://observium.xxxx.xx/device/device=8/tab=alert/alert_entry=13620/

It would be great if one of the developers could help me out.

Should be in there, I’m using Slack as well, and I do see the ifAlias in the alert. It’s using the same mechanism as far as I know. Maybe one of the developers can chime in here?

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using Telegram for notification transport.

It should be in the email that you get. You must be running a really old version then?

Subject: [Observium] Include interface description/alias in Alerts

Hello!

I have configured an alert checker for our Ports according to the documentation:

Port is enabled, but operationally down            Port      ifAdminStatus equals up ifOperStatus notequals up      ALL      *             ifType equals ethernetCsmacd

Everything works fine, except the alerts only include the port number (e.g. Entity: Port13). I would like to include the interface description/alias too (e.g. Customer_xyz).

Is there a way I can achieve this?

Regards

Siegfried
