Tip    It's a good practice to rename the behavior model objects that you modify. Whenever you import a model, NerveCenter will overwrite objects with the same name.

• Poll intervals
• Set poll conditions to detect additional information, such as gateways with high traffic, gateways with errors, and so on.
• Add a NerveCenter alarm action to write the list of gateways to a log or to an xterm window.
