Wish: Link Status with color representation and notification

Hi @ all,

Last week I’ve found ‘The Dude’. It’s a very nice tool with many potential. Congratulations to developers.

Now I only have two wishes:
Is it possible to integrate new functions so I can configure standard colors and notifications for interface status change in Link dialog.

I think especially to switches or router with multi link connections. If only one link goes down the network component is reachable furthermore via IP but I want to know when backup link is down.

Now is only possible to define colors for speed rate in Dude.

I hope you understand my wish.

Hello,
i think that it’s simple
Make two probes in SNMP type that poll 1st interface and the second interface (secour)
With SNMP OID ifOperStatus.n° of interface
OID Type Integer
Compare Methode ==
Integer value 1
1 re default value for up, 2 for down

Don’t forget to check treat service as available only if up

its ok for probing

choose ur apparence color default for down or up or down partial position

For Notification you can creat a new popup (popup_1 when is ok) in insert varaiable exemple : Hello, all it’s Ok here on [Device Name]
On Label Advanced choose only down > up

creat a new popup_2 (when device down)
insert varaiable exemple : Hello, Problem with[Probe Name] on [Device Name]
On Label Advanced choose up > unstable and/or up > down


I don’t know sry but see http://forum.mikrotik.com//viewtopic.php?t=14091

Question to BabisSougias :laughing:

I hope that you understood my English

Hello,

thank you for quick answer, but this is not what I want. I’m looking for simple possibility to monitoring a specific link status. I want to add one or more links to an device and say: Monitor these links an notfiy me per email and with color change when link status goes down. For this the link dialog should include tab with notify and link color logic. I don’t need the color for fill rate. This is not so relevant. User should deside self what parameter is displayed with color.

I hope my wish is clear. See also WhatsUp Gold V11. There is this feature present.

if you just want have a email notification on this 2 interface

test 1.3.6.1.2.2.1.1 its interface index

creat a probe

With SNMP OID ifOperStatus.n° of interface
OID Type Integer
Compare Methode ==
Integer value 1
1 re default value for up, 2 for down

when you have n°interface(exemple 1001, 1002, 1003) integrate with oid
exemple you want oper status of 1st interface (1001) 1.3.6.1.2.2.1.8.1001

ok
notification by email when probe not =1 (up)



On links i think is impossible to change color with links state changes

Good luck :smiley:

BTW, does anybody know when link becomes red?
This is visible in example at the top.
TIA

A link becomes red when it’s capacity becomes saturated.
