Description

From: T351862: InterfaceSpeedError, to make it more actionable by DCops:

The dashboard link points to an unrelated dashboard
description: on alert1001:9100 has the wrong speed: 1.2e+07. Should have a better notation, like Speed: 100Mb/s
The task title could be a bit more explicit (maybe mention the host)
The runbook link should point to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Monitoring/check_eth#InterfaceSpeedError (to be more specific) and have steps to follow when it triggers
Most of the information is repeated twice and it's unclear what's the actual bit of important information as opposed to all the metadata.
