James,
Thanks a lot for the info. I appreciate it..
Bill



I'm sorry, Bill.  But netmon has no such option.  You'd have to devise some other way.  For example, you could create a smartset for  down interfaces and run a cron job that ran a script to query it periodically, with nvUtil l  <smartset>, to see what was in it.  For each member you could create new events too using the event command,  event -e IDWN_EV -d "Interface
<member_name> is still down" .   You get the idea.

 Another way might be to change how your ops people handle tickets, perhaps requiring a different person to close the thing than the guy who worked on it, so that none are closed without a resolution.  I'm not a Remedy guy so I can't help you with automation there.

And I can't tell you how Precision's monitoring works with that level of detail.  Sorry once again.
