This behavior model detects when a Network Interface Card (NIC) has failed on a Compaq server. It also detects when the server has switched to another redundant NIC. When a failure is detected, NerveCenter extracts from the varbind information which slot contains the failed card. NerveCenter then sends this information in an email as well as informs the network management platform.
