SNMP-how to set the interface Alias under the trigger prototype description field

[Zabchix]

Hi ,there is the default template: "Template SNMP Interfaces" , what I want to do is the following:
put item prototype:
Alias of interface {#SNMPVALUE} ifAlias[{#SNMPVALUE}]

to trigger prototype:
Operational status was changed on {HOST.NAME} interface {#SNMPVALUE}
under the Description field.

I tried various of things without a success.

The main goal behind it is each time an interface in our BackBone switch goes down/up , the alert that we receive will also contain the interface description/alias.

Thanks !

Hi,

use discovery rule like:

discovery[{#IFDESCR}, ifDescr, {#IFALIAS}, ifAlias]

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.4/manual/discovery/low_level_discovery/snmp_oids

then you can use both {#IFDESCR} and {#IFALIAS} macros in your expressions and names
