Configuring Metric Polling : Interface polling control use cases
  
Interface polling control use cases
Used together, polling profile interface filters and interface polling overrides provide a powerful means to control interface polling and achieve your interface polling requirements. A few examples are provided as follows:
“Just poll my access switch uplinks”
Create a group with just your access switches in it
Create a polling profile for the access switch group with the “Exclude all interfaces” filter
Import an “always poll” CSV containing the access switch uplink ports
“I have a spreadsheet of the interfaces I want to poll”
Create a polling profile with the “Exclude all interfaces” filter
Import an “always poll” C
SV containing the ports you want to poll
“I want to poll all my adminUp interfaces except for a few”
Create a polling profile with the “Poll Admin Up Interfaces” filter
Import a “never poll” CSV
