[Xymon] Dual port network cards

[Neil Simmonds]

A large number of our systems have dual port network cards and I'm
wondering if there is an easy way to monitor if a particular interface
is down.

 

Each adapter has the following information in the client data,

 

General Statistics:
-------------------
No mbuf Errors: 0
Adapter Reset Count: 1
Adapter Data Rate: 2000
Driver Flags: Up Broadcast Running 
        Simplex 64BitSupport ChecksumOffload 
        PrivateSegment LargeSend DataRateSet 

 

 

I'm wondering if I could check the value highlighted and alert if it is
not "up" without having to write an external script to do it?

 

I can't see anything in the analysis.cfg man page so I thought I'd ask
here.

 

Thanks,
