We have a Cisco 6509 that supports VLANs.  Every time the network guys 
reconfigure a VLAN, NetView detects an interface up AND a node up.  Of course, 
because I have the NodeUp firing off pagers, everyone panics thinking that the 
6509 has been reset.  

First: Is this behavior normal?

Second: Is there any way to stop the NodeUp detection while VLANs are being 
reconfigured without disabling the normal detection for NodeUp/Down?


I've put the events below for reference.  Thanks in advance for everyone's help!
