Your list of nodes must be fully qualified for one thing. If the trap
comes in from "host1.abc.com" that must be what is in your /pop file.
Just "host1" will not do it. And you should have one entry per line with
no comments. I cannot think of what else to tell you since I have made
this same thing work here many times.

Subject: Event Configuration
First question:
I'd like to see in the NetView Control Desk the event Interface down
just
from a list of nodes that I've put in a file: /pop
From the NetView main menu I selected: Options-->Event
Configuration-->Trap
Customization:SNMP... and select the enterprise netView60000 and find
the
event name Interface down. I modified the Event Category to Log Only and
save
it.
I copy this event given the name event INTERFACE_DOWN and after
modified the Event Category to Status Events, Severity to Critical and I
add
in the source the path (/pop).
I tested (sending an interface down event to trapd) but does not work,
I
can't see any interface down event on the control desk. There are
not
filter o rulesets active ( I have the default configuration). I am
also
interesting to associate a command for the interface down event but I
did
not try because I have to resolve this first. I use AIX 4.3.2 and NetView
5.1.
I am wondering if I missed some steps or there is a bug.
Second question:
I tried the command setthresh to update (adding also new entries) the
file
snmpCol.conf but without success. In the addministrator's guide there is
not
an example. Is this command works and if yes may I have an example ?.
Thanks a lot.
