Ignoring a Linkset
You can instruct SGM to ignore a linkset when it aggregates and displays network
data. Setting linksets to Ignored prevents known linkset problems from affecting
SGM displays for associated nodes. In effect, you are preventing a known
problem from distracting you from other, more urgent network problems.
For example, you can set a linkset to Ignored before shutting down the linkset for
maintenance.
Note If you set a linkset to Ignored, the linkset is ignored for all SGM clients and views
connected to that SGM server.
Also, if you set a linkset to Ignored, make a note of the change, and do not forget
to reset the linkset when the problem is corrected or the maintenance is complete.
To set a linkset to Ignored in the Linkset Window, select the Ignored checkbox
for the linkset you want SGM to ignore.
To set a linkset to Ignored in the Topology window, select a linkset in the
topology map, then, in the left pane, select the Ignored checkbox for the linkset
you want SGM to ignore.
Viewing Ignored Linksets
To display all linksets that are Ignored, display the Linkset Window and click the
Ignored column header. SGM displays all ignored linksets at the top of the table.
