Couple things.
1. if these are end user ports you want to monitor, there is a setting if you edit a port/s to specify them as unpluggable. This means if they go "down" they won't be marked as down, but as unplugged. This feature is meant for end user ports you want to monitor, but not get flooded with the alerts etc.
2. not sure why the child status is not going away, it should if there are no warnings on that node. When you hover on the node, what does it say the problem is, an interface or something else?
Hello Brandon,
I am not worry about the end user ports for now, but the child status. The square red blinking when nothing is down. When I hover on the node, the message is "node is up". I think it is the NPM bug. It only showed on Nortel Baystack switches, but worked fine with Nortel 8600 switches.
