how do i sort out node-up/down and link-up/down traps before they clog
nvevents.log (max. only 2MB) and events-display (max only 1000)?

we have 1500+ clients who switch on their systems every morning and power
off in the evening.
that makes approx. 6000 traps per day. i can't see the relevant traps any
more.

we built a rule block.rs:
event-stream (pass) -> trap settings -> block events
and put that rule in ESE.sutomatation and restartet ovactiond.

but still i see in the event display (bottom right) that the rule
forwardall.rs is in use and the traps are flooding my system.
we are on aix 4.3.1, tmf 3.6, nv 5.1.

block.rs:
