We had a situation this morning where a WAN link failed but the router interfaces at both ends remained UP-UP.

HP Openview did not notice the link had gone down. We only noticed because the secondary connection to the office began to route large amounts of traffic.

The supplier network between our offices is invisible to us, and we have Cisco equipment installed everywhere.

Any clues on how we could detect this state in the future?

Thanx in advance...
