Problem: Until I find time to go through all my gear and delete unused peering sessions, I'd like to make Solarwinds ignore BGP neighbors with the following state: Idle (Admin)
You'll see this if you do a sh ip bgp sum and you have an admin down BGP peer.
Currently I only have the first gray child condition, Routing Neighbors Protocol Orion Status is equal to Down. The 3 gray child conditions listed under the AND statement are ones that I was considering tinkering with if it will accomplish the task.
I was thinking that all I need to do is tell the Alerts to IGNORE Idle (Admin) bgp states this would solve my problem for now. It doesn't look like there is a way to do this. Can anyone give a suggestion (besides delete the bgp peers bc yeah yeah it's on my list)?
Here are some other options to choose from:
