We monitor switches and i have noticed that sometimes when ports become unplugged (this may simply be an old device being removed) the status flap alert stays for months and even if we acknowledge it it stays as a current alert.
Is there a way of easily correcting this so planned port disconnections can be ignored?
Hi Kris - came across this old post when I was looking for somethign else..
THis shouldn't happen. The flap alert only triggers when the interface is up (but only recently up). When you unplug an interface, status will go down, which should remove any status flap alerts, as they are conditional on an UP state.
If this is still occurring, LMK and I'll investigate in your account.
Thanks
Thanks Steve.
