      Hello,

      I am proposing a new trigger to detect if an interface is "flapping" ie going up and down multiple times in a short period of time is added to the official "Interfaces SNMP" template. This is to avoid multiple "problem / resolved" alerts for administrators if an interface is constantly going up and down

      The "Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}): Link down" prototype should be dependent on this new trigger as well to avoid triggering constantly.

      Possibly using count on ifOperStatus and checking for more than 5 values of 1 (up) and 2 (down) in a ten minute interval or so, but there is possibly a more elegant way
