masive statusflap alerts
Hi to all:
I have problems with "StatusFlap" type alerts, the truth is that the platform send me many messages to my email, so, does anyone know if they are false positives? My network device...

Hi Ivan,
We are pulling the Status and Status Flap metrics via SNMP directly from the device. It is unlikely that these are false positives. Status Flap and Status alerts are common for access switches where you have users turning their machines off and on, unplugging when leaving for the day, connecting/disconnecting mobile devices, etc. For these situations, we suggest creating an Instance Group and adding the appropriate 'user access' interfaces to the group. Then turning off Status and Status Flap monitoring for that Instance Group. The interfaces that are important, trunk ports, VLANs, Uplinks, etc will continue to be fully monitored.
