[xymon] Brief red alarms

[White, Bruce]

I have seen this kind of behavior when a single bad route keeps getting reintroduced to the network routers (generally from a single router).   When the bad route hits the router the ping attempts it return route on, the ping fails.

Just a thought on something might check into.

Its an existing install.  We changed the IPs and all the switches.  In
theory, the bandwidth for all links is the same or higher than before.
 100Mbps to 10Gbps, depending on the link.  This behavior started
after the changes, though.

For what its worth, we have been using "INTERVAL 5m" in the bbnet
section of hobbitlaunch.cfg since I first installed Xymon.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jaime
