Configure Interface Monitoring

State Poller analyzes interface group membership before node groups. For each of the interface groups you created, as well as any of the preexisting ones you want to use, open the Monitoring Configuration dialog and the Interface Settings tab to create a custom set of instructions for how State Poller should handle that group. Your instructions will include:

  • Enabling or disabling fault monitoring
  • Setting the fault polling interval
  • Enabling or disabling performance polling if you have the NNM iSPI Performance for Metrics
  • Setting the performance polling interval if you have the NNM iSPI Performance for Metrics
  • Setting performance management thresholds if you have the NNM iSPI Performance for Metrics
  • Selecting whether NNMi should monitor unconnected interfaces (or unconnected interfaces hosting IP addresses) in the group

You can configure different settings for each interface group. Remember that the State Poller evaluates the list in order from the lowest ordering number to the highest ordering number.

Tip Double-check your order numbers, keeping in mind that an object that qualifies for multiple groups has settings applied from the group with the lowest order number.
