Hello,
Im having hard understanding the logic and setting a condition in the alarm template to ignore monitoring on any Arista Switch port that has
Admin State and Operation State set to "Down"
I need to ignore these ports that are not in use.
rule condition in the alarm template
I only want to monitor any port that is connected and has Admin and Oper state to UP
Hi Juan,
By having just one condition, you can make sure you won't get an alarm when the admin status is Down.
Let me know if something is still unclear or if I misunderstood your question.
Kind Regards,
Jarno
Hello @Jarno
I also though that would be the case however, the only way I could achieve ignoring down ports was to apply the condition to both lines Admin/Oper state
Just want to make sure im setting the right condition so when there's an actual port that is disconnected that will trigger the alert (alarm condition)
Hi Juan,
Normally, in this case, it should be sufficient to only have the condition applied to the Admin State. The Operational State will only be "Admin Down" if you put the Admin State parameter to Down, so that condition will always be fulfilled.
Kind Regards,
Jarno
