RE: [hobbit] Alerting when host goes green

["HUBBARD, GREG ((EDS))" <ghubbard (at) hp.com>]

If you specify your IP as "dialup" it will be "ok" when down, and "green" when up.  Then you can alert on "green" without having to fiddle with "disable until OK" every time there is a transition.  Just an idea...

I have a fallback IP that is specified on a device that will only be used in the event it can't reach the DHCP server.  Should it have this problem, I (obviously :) would like to know!

I am thinking about having it disabled until OK, then just alert me when it changes to green.

Does anyone have a better solution?  Perhaps something that won't sit on the menu blue for eternity?
