Hi Subhendu,

thanks !

I tried,

         nms# ./check_ifstatus -H x.x.x.x -C public -u 26 -I

and still got critical:

         CRITICAL: host '1x.x.x.x', interfaces up: 11, down: 1, dormant: 0, 
excluded: 0, unused: 1<BR>E1 6/0: down -> <BR>
          |up:11,down:1,dormant:0,excluded:0,unused:1

It's funny, isn't it., seems I've to check more.

Christian
