Yes, thisis a pretty good solution too.
Adding lots of mostly useless stuff as metrics for strange use cases isn't a good idea, especially when it can be solved in other ways.

Hi,
haha, funny case :)
Probably you can create port Group with such attribute, and see in this
group periodically (manually).
Another hack, create port alert with such attribute and metric ifOperStatus match * ie:
And I also not sure, that it's time critical :)
Klimek, Denis mailto:DKlimek@Stadtwerke-Norderstedt.de 31 July 2018 at 17:57 Do you have any other suggestion how we can monitor with Observium if
the port descriptions are matching the correct syntax? :/

You are trying to use attributes as metrics, don't do that.

Adam Armstrong mailto:adama@memetic.org 27 July 2018 at 15:03 ifAlias can't (currently) be used as an alerting metric.
we could add it, but its perhaps better to just use the attribute in the association.
