That i know, but what concerns me is
that why does it shows it as "Down" when the device is Not
Down...?

Each switch has a "Layer2status" object
at the interface level with an ip
0.0.0.0. This object represent the layer 2 status of the switch. The
"ContainerLayer2Status" container (at the network level) is just
there to
contain all the different "Layer2Status" of the different switch
that have
been discovered by itsl2. If it show red, it means that all the switches
discovered by itsl2 have been correlated as down by itsl2.

Hi,

We have NetView7.1.4 FP3 with Switch Analyzer installed on Windows Machine.
We have One Cisco(2950) switch on LAN. The NetView shows a symbol
"ContainerLayer2Status" in red and when i open it there is an
inteface with
"0.0.0.0" ip address and it shows it as down. What is that "0.0.0.0"
interface and why is it down?
