We are currently trialing OPManager.

 

I'm a bit confused on the following behaviour. If a switch port on any of our ProCurve gear is Administratively down (meaning we want it disable) OPManager logs a Critical Event for that switch. Yet if a port is Administratively up but the physical link is down it logs a "Trouble" Event.

 

If a port is Administratively disabled, it is likely we want it that way so it shouldn't be logged as a problem. On the flip side, if it is Administratively enabled yet offline there is more chance of it being a real legit problem.

 

Is this behaviour changeable because it is a quite annoying to have my switches showing critical because of this.

 

Thanks
