In short, make your border router the parent of the customer router in
the configs using the parents directive.

Be sure to remove 'u' from your notification options for the child hosts
or you'll still get paged saying that they're unreachable (as opposed to
down).

Subject: [Nagios-users] monitor woes

i have a situation where one of our network legs has one "border" router
which 
is a parent to 30+ customer routers

is there a way of placing some kind of smart logic into nagios notify
plugins 
so that if the border is unreachable, i will only be paged once for the 
border and not 30+ times for the border and all customers? yet if one of
the 
customer routers is unreachable but border is fine, then i want ot be
paged 
for that customer router.
