Thanks Maarteen for the suggestion. Below is a link I found on cisco.com that shows all the SNMP ifType options. I'm assuming Observium supports all the ifTypes that cisco does? I have serial interfaces in my environment, so I wouldn't want to exclude those in my alert checkers. Doing a little digging it seems vlan svi interface ifType is propVirtual. I'm going to try not not match on propVirtual.

Hi Chip,
Change entity match to 'ifType match ethernetCsmacd'.

Hi All,
We created a Alert Checker for interface usage greater than 80%. We are seeing interface usage alerts for Vlan SVI interfaces. These don't mean as much to us as physical interfaces do. Looks like the default bandwidth on a Vlan SVI interface is 1G on our platform. Is there any way we can configure Observium not alert on vlan interfaces?
Our Device Match is "os equals ios" and our Entity Match is "*" for the interface usage alerts. I see ifType is an attribute option. Could I do something like "not ifType vlan"? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks, -Chip
