Hello all.

I hope for your help.

I get events thru Cisco IOS Event Collector 4.3.

Events as "Interface FastEthernet0/7, changed state to up", "Interface FastEthernet0/7, changed state to down" and so on...

I need such rule, which will create alert when Interface changed state to down, but not changed state to up for 5 minutes, for example.

I tried create "X not followed by Y" and "Y not preceded by X" rules, but that rules check events, which was obtained. And I need rule, wich will check, that there was no events with "changed state to up" in description.

Thank you.

Hi, Bohen. For X not follwed

Hi, Bohen.

For X not follwed by Y rules there is a timespan SSIM is waiting for the Y event. If it is not getting this event within configured time after getting X event - it will fire a rule and create an incident.

Thanks,

Alexey.

Thanks,

Alexey.
