- SunNet Manager seems to want to change the state of a glyph in automatic
- management mode every time the network loses an SNMP packet. (I haven't
- really done a test of this, I can say that SNM will trun a glyph to its
- down state and cause a "no answer from" event when I know positively that
- the device is up, and never missed a beat.) This becomes really
- bothersome because SNM won't change the state of the glyph back to its
- original state or to a state which indicates a reboot of the machine in
- question when it receives its next SNMP response. Is this what everyone
- else is finding or do I need to RTFM some more? If my network managment
- software doesn't really reflect the state of my network in real-time and
- in fact becomes a burden on the operators, what good is it?
