Todd and Bernard,

Thanks for the QUICK combacks and excellant suggestions.

Bernard, Being a relatively "NEW GUY" to network monitoring, what would
your suggestion do to network performance?  I'll probably have to test it
out.

Todd, we are useing the new T!/IMA cards in Cisco Routers.  Used to use
SNMP compatible CSU/DSU's but the Cisco seem so easy and cost effective.

Caveat: I'm not familiar with "T1's in an IMA group."  So I can offer
these general thoughts:

What do the T1's terminate into (CSU/DSU?)?  Is that device SNMP
manageable?  Would there be MIB variable you could query with netview
or a script to find what you seek?  Does the device trap on the
failure of any of hte physical links?
