Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:




Unmanaged interface shows status as UKNOWN

Environment

VMware Smart Assurance - SMARTS

The interface status is UKNOWN since the interface is not on the SNMP poller to be polled for status or connectivity.  The status will remain UNKNOWN until the interface is managed and a reconfigure is executed.

Resolution

None.  This is expected behavior.
