Maggie -
Show us your action command so we can examine it.
$NVG is the generic trap type, probably a number "6'. $NVS is the the specific
trap number. So you would expect these to be numeric. As for the MIB number,
you'll have to explain what you are doing and why you expected anything else.
Did you want to send in the mail what you see in the event display? Then you
must use xnmtrap to see how the event log message is formatted and send
something similar to that. For example, if the event log message says "$3" then
you must send "$NVATTR_3" in your mail. If it says "$4 interface is $5" then
you must send " $NVATTR_4 interface is $NVATTR_5".
Do you understand?

Subject: Problem for represent meaningful information in action box of rul
eset
I have configured ruleset in order to forward some events to mail.
What I have received - is a sequence no - meaningless for me. ($NVG, $NVS -
all are in number format ).
Furthermore, our network device 's mib parameter are also in number format.
-> Very meaningless message.
Do all of you have any idea for that ?
1) is there any variable that I can used.
or
2) is there any ovAPI can help me in this case ?
Thanks
Best Regards,
Maggie Sin
