To remove ports that have had not had any traffic for 90 days from being counted in the license please use the Auto Grouping rules to match the interfaces based on the "if90day" attribute.
The procedure to create a new Auto Grouping rule to do this is below:
- On the Statseeker Administration GUI page select “Auto Grouping" in the "User Profile/Grouping" section, and then click the “Add” button.
- Enter a name for the rule in the "Rule Name" box.
- Enter a name of your new rule group in the “Groups to populate” field.
- Set the "Group Type" to “Interface” using the drop-down list.
- We only want to run this rule "on demand" so set the "Status" to "Off".
- In the "Filters" section set the "Attribute Filter" to "if90day" using the drop-down list and set the pattern in the next box to "0".
if90day has two possible "patterns":
0 - no traffic
1 - traffic - Then click the "Show Advanced Options" button to open the "Configuration" section.
- Then set the interface polling off by selecting "ifPoll" in the "Items" and then selecting "off" using the drop-down list in the adjacent box.
- Then use the "Test Rule" button to show what will be matched by the rule, what config changes will be done and the changes that will be done to the licensing.
The Test Rule button will not change anything. - When you are happy with what the rule does you can save the rule (using the "Save Rule" button) and run the rule (using the "Run Now" button) which will make the changes.
This rule can be made more specific by using both grouping and regex to target interfaces more specifically.
Please see both the Notes on the page below the Auto Grouping functions and the Statseeker documentation linked below for further information:
https://docs.statseeker.com/groups/automated-grouping/
Please also note the this is a very simple rule that may affect many interfaces and that if new traffic occurs on an interface that has not had traffic for 90 days that the interface will need polling to be manually reenabled for Statseeker to see that traffic.
