Alert on Packet Loss but only when node is UP

This seems like a fairly simple thing to setup but I can't get it working the way the logic reads.

Basically want an alert to be generated when there is a packet loss but not when the Node is down as there is a separate Node Down alert which would take priority.

I've tried a Simple Alert with:

Node Percent Loss is greater than 5%

AND

Node Status is Equal to UP

This trigger alerts on devices that are Down, Unmanaged, Unreachable and External

I tried an Advanced Alert with:

Primary Section:

Node Percent Loss is greater than 5

Secondary Section:

Node Status is Equal to UP

This also triggers alerts on devices that are Down, Unmanaged, Unreachable and External

I was also advised that the Advanced Alert replaces Alert Suppression in NPM 12.3

Thanks,

Andy
