if64, but it additionally monitors the administrative
status (ifAdminStatus) of the interface. This check has to be specifically
activated using the rule "SNMP Interface check: Monitor ifAdminStatus (use 'if64adm'
instead of 'if64')". Consult the manpage of if64 for further information. Item
There are three allowed ways to specify an interface: its index {ifIndex}, its description {ifDescr} and its alias {ifAlias}.
Discovery
One service is created for each interface that fulfills configurable conditions (rule "Network interface and switch port discovery"). By default, these are interfaces which are currently found {up} and are of type 6, 32, 62, 117, 127, 128, 129, 180, 181, 182, 205 or 229. {Grouping:} In some situations, you do not want to monitor a single interface but a group of interfaces that together form a pool. This check supports such pools by defining groups. The data of all members is accumulated and put together in a single grouped interface service.
