Alert to Detect multiple MAC address on a switchport for Brocade and other Vendor switches

Full Issue Description:

Customer is using the Out of the Box Alert "Alert me when an access port connected to two or more Mac Addresses"

This has worked fine on a Cisco Switch but not on a Brocade switch

checking the Requirement of the Alert, the port needs to be a Non-Trunking Port

I checked this with our AE's and they confirmed that this alert checks against the Table "UDT_PortToCurrentEndpoint"

UDT_PortToCurrentEndpoint to the ports in UDT_Port that have a trunkmode of 2.

Trunkmode of 2 equals a NonTrunking port.

But we confirmed on Brocade that it was a Non Trunking Port that we connected an Avaya and a Workstation, but it di not trigger the alert

we checked the Trunk Column for the Brocade port but it was 0

we changed the port status of This Brocade switch but we never got it to register number 2 on Trunk Column

With this, we are filing it as as a Feature Request

Troubleshooting steps taken:

We used an Avaya and a Laptop connected to it

we plugged that into a Cisco Switchport and it trigerred the Alert

the same cable, we unplugged it from the Cisco Switch to the Brocade Switch but we never got the Alert

we checked the "UDT_PortToCurrentEndpoint" table and it never registered a value of 2 or any other number for the brocade switch

tried changing port modes. from tagged to untagged port but still no effect
