notify if port is up instead of down

New to Nagios and I am setting up switch monitoring. I ran through the switch wizard and got most of what I needed setup but I need to trigger an alert if the port is up instead of down. Is there a way to do this? I have Googled but not seeing anything.
Nagios XI 2014R2.0 (VMware image)
Thanks!

rickb,
How are you monitoring if the port is down? Off the cuff I suggest that using the negate plugin can invert your results if you have a configuration in place to notify if the switch ports are down:

Does that help?
