In the alerts engine, it would be handy to configure alert supressions to supress to itself.
For example, there is an MLPPP bug in some versions of Cisco code. I want to trip an MLPPP alert if my RX bps is 0, but I also want to surpress this alert if:
TX bps of the same interface is 0 or
Status of the same interface is not up.
I'd rather not write up a ton of alerts that all do the same thing.
