Oh I see. If that is the case I will compile an alert that will activate the script... i will let you know...

Do you mean like this?

Hi Martin, Thanks for responding. I actually mean when the interface is down but the protocol is up. I understand when an interface is down/down or when the interface is admin down. However, as I mentioned there numerous situations where the interface is down/up i.e. nterface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol…

Hi Martin, Thanks for responding. I'm trying to use NPM to configure the interfaces with ingress or egress. However, when I select the option the commands don't appear on the interfaces... Any thoughts? Cheers Carlton

Richard, Thanks for letting me test your trigger. However, it doesn't work. :-(

Terry, I think that is my only option ..... I was hoping to achieve the alert with the trigger condition

HI Stuart & Everyone helping out Sorry for the delayed response ... I'm over in London Anyway, to answer your question, the alert isn't triggering and I'm not receiving an email. I definitely have configured a trigger action, which works on any other trigger. I'm going to test your other suggestions above

Wow! This is beyond me - never got involved with SQL Custom alerts before. Should I just paste that in here:

Hi Adam, I've create a vbscript, see attached, that I wish to be run with a application called secureCRT. How would I go about doing that? Cheers Carlton

Thank you

Community, Another interesting discovery is that when I change the Trigger from 'Down' to 'Up' the Trigger does recognise the BGP status as Established on the same nodes that it didn't recognise when BGP went down... I hope that makes sense Cheers

OK, thanks Carlton

Hi mHarvey, I'm not entirely sure I know what you mean. However, I will give it a try... Cheers

Thank you Cheers Carlton

OK Leon. Going to try that now...

Leon, Just to be clear, I CAN'T run external actions from the Trigger Action, but I CAN run external actions from cmd and from Basic Alerts Cheers

leon The strange thing is, it works with Basic Alerts, not Advanced Alerts

Leon, Why won't it run test1.bat? You seemed quite sure this would work Regards

Leon, I just want the Trigger Action to execute a program called secureCRT.exe Cheers

Leon/Tigger2 Thanks for sticking with me on this ... I've been on the phone with support for nearly an hour and they couldn't get it to work, however I'm sure its something very simple that is missing...

OK Leon, I followed your instructions exactly, but nothing appeared in the directly. However, it appears to execute successfully from the test screen..

HI Leon, I'm glad you jumped in. I'm going to try your suggestion now ... Give me 5mins....

Tigger2 Thanks again for responding - I'm getting better response from you than Solarwinds support. Anyway, I don't fully understand what you're saying in this post. Do you have a sample? Cheers Carlton

Hi Craig, I have done everything you specified but still no luck.... Did you see my original post? Cheers

The weird thing is - It will work with Basic Alerts, but not with Advance Alerts .....

How do I vote?

Leon, I hope you're still around to help me with this issue. The trap OID that I'm trying to convert to a poller OID is: 1.3.6.1.4.1.17163.1.1.4.0.9 Any help would be greatly appreciated.... Regards

Leon, Could I not even convert to as you suggested an equivalent poll-OID value that will give you the current value. ????

Leon Thanks for responding. The most important feature I would like is the ability to run NCM when I trap is invoked, see below:

Hello Community, I'm struggling to get this UnDP to work...
