If you want a node to refelct a compound status that includes not just
interface status but also MIB thresholds, then I suggest that you look at
the APM function that you get with the Mid Level Manager.  There are some
excellent appends on the NetView archive from Leslie Clark if you go back
far enough.  Otherwise, you have to work pretty jolly hard with APIs to
get the node to change colour as you want.

You can install an MLM on the same box as your NetView if you wish
(provided it is AIX or Solaris).  If you are on Windows or Linux then APM
is a non-starter.

Cheers,
