Tnx all for the help
Yee, I need to keep a lot of ports in "no shutdown"
Is this the config option I should be looking at:
$config['bad_if_'][] = "STRING"; $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "/serial[0-9]:/"; Would that be the filter to ignore the ports ? then we into massive manual configuration
Or is this based on the description on each interface ?
Like this ?
Interface GigabitEthernet0/1 Description pleaseignore
That would mean a compromise to leave unprovisioned ports open, but with a string that instructs observium to ignore it.
Close?

Hi Benedikt,
The best way to do this is to shut down ports which are not in use. Observium will not alert if they are administratively down.
However, if your network is like Jeffrey's or mine, there are also options in the device settings to ignore all currently alerted or currently down ports.

Personally, I never even look at the front page. It's only there so you don't get a blank page. Though we get enough people asking this that I'm occasionally tempted to remove it and replace it with the hamster!
Also, how do I get my free Eve account? :>

I have not been able to find this, we started trying/using Observium for few weeks. We intend to use it mostly to compliment our current monitoring software. We are impressed with it, but the main intention is graphing and helping us troubleshooting.
We are monitoring large 6500 switches and we have a number of ports that we intentionally keep in the cisco notconnected state.
The front page of Observium is then riddled with the "Port Down" messages. Can this be suppressed / ignored ?
