I do have the same problem - nodes going down and up on only one particular
agent (Sun E6000 with 4 network connections). For my situation, the
message came from the MLM - TME_10/MLM 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.12, event specific
number 1 and 2 (MLM_SessionDown and MLM_SessionUp). I increased the poll
time in MLM and timeout in Netview (snmp configuration menu) but the
problem still persists. Any suggestionn would be appreciated.

Hi Christian
We have had the same problem on our Network, and modifying the poll timer
did not help.
This is a Cisco Network which was using CISCO Priority queuing to give
priority to our SNA/DLSw traffic. We had a situation where the SNA traffic
was totally excluding other traffic (SNMP and ICMP) so that Netview would
think that the Nodes were down. We had to re-engineer the Network to ensure
ICMP and SNMP had some priority in the scheme of things.
Could this be the problem on your Network?
Good luck
Phil
