I am wondering what you mean which "generally". This modification is intended to be used in specific situations. In our case redundancy build in the network may mask the failure of one connection (trunk). The users won't notice the failure, but the network administrator should know about it. On the other hand, I think the extension to bbmrtg.pl is generally usable for those who have this specific need.

Devmon does all this for me without any hacks (as it has separate tests for the interface status and interface load) ... and the new devmon weathermap script will actually show any links down as red ...
