That is correct.  The input #2 trap is used as a template, rather like a
literal.  It is not processed further unless you add logic for that.   I am
not sure what you mean by "close".  Are you talking about TEC events?

Hi James,

Thanks for your answer to my ruleset question. From further experimentation
I
have now created a rule that appears to work with a delay time of 3
seconds.

However, the trap designated as input 2 to the node is not passed for
further
processing even if the delay period for the original trap has already been
exceeded. Is this NetView working as designed or do I need to add any extra
logic to my ruleset?

We are logging these messages to anotherapplication and want the second
message to close the first when it has been logged.

Thanks
