labels and thresholds

is there way to make a label color change according to threshold setting.  we have configured the utilization variable in link label, is it possible for the label color to change if the 80% utlization threshold is exceeded?

  • Yes but not easily.....

    We are doing this on our maps and using a SQL stored procedure to update a node custom property which then can be used in the label.

    Ready....

    For instance I created 3 node custom properties called 'Norma', 'Warning' and 'High'. I then created a stored procedure which calculates the current bandwidth utilization of the outbound traffic. In the stored procedure it looks at the value and if it is lass than 70% it updates the Normal field. If it is above 90% then it updates the High field otherwise it updates the Warning field. In each case it blanks out the other two fields.

    I then placed 3 labels on the map for the node in question and assigned them ${Normal} - in blue, ${Warning} - in Orange and ${High} - in red. All overlapping.

    Now when the map refreshes it should display the proper value in the proper color coded label.

    Easy huh!
