Richard, we do this through a shell script. When a node down trap is
received, a nodedown script is invoked via nodedown ruleset that retries
ping five times with a delay of 1 minute each, just to make sure it is not
just a reboot, before it forwards it to TEC.

Subject: [nv-l] Netview rulesets


I am new to netview.  I have a rule that queries Smartsets first,  traps
second (up-down node or interface), and  then forwards event to TEC.  My
problem is with a node that bounces once or twice, being forwarded to TEC. I
would like to put in a filter that holds the event for 10 minutes before
forwarding.   I am not sure how to do this.  Do I use thresholds, Set State,
or something else. I do not know what the attributes numbers (1-50) mean, or
how to use them.  Can someone help?
