Thanks Don and James.

Your suggestions worked great. I've got the ruleset working and now I need
to work on the notification scripts.

Ray,

Here is a script that I have used in the past.

# Set $MANAGER to your NetView Server
# Set $NODE to node that is sending trap
# Set $ENT to Enterprise number of agent, don't forget leading dot
(.1.3.6.1.4.1.....)
# Set $VAR1-4 to the specific variable ID to be sent with the trap (from the
MIB definition)
# NetView doesn't really care what you use for VAR1-4 as long as it starts
with a dot !
# Spaces are required before the backslashes
# You need to customize the event log message to display similar to this :
# Loss of Frame Trap - Port: $1, Severity: $2, Unit type: $3, Slot: $4

MANAGER=
NODE=
ENT=
VAR1=
VAR2=
VAR3=
VAR4=

/usr/OV/bin/snmptrap $MANAGER $ENT $NODE 6 35 0 \
$VAR1 Integer 1 \
$VAR2 Integer 3 \
$VAR3 Integer 35 \
$VAR4 Integer 0

Hello Everyone.

NetView 6.0.2 on AIX 4.3.3.4

I'm trying to replicate a trap I received from a Digital Link DL3800 T1
inverse multiplexer. The trap indicates the type of failure and the
particular T1 that failed.
If I can get the snmptrap command to work, I can test a ruleset that will
page on call personnel and change the object status on the map.
Here's the trap entry from the /usr/OV/log/trapd.log file. The T1 on port 1
failed (arg 1). The type of event was a loss of frame (arg 3). 

996564159  7  Tue Jul 31 02:22:39 2001 host A digital-link 6 35 4 args:  [1]
unitEventEntry.unitEventOriginPortNum.0 (Integer): 1
996564159  7  Tue Jul 31 02:22:39 2001  host A  [2]
unitEventTable.unitEventEntry.unitEventSeverity.0 (Integer): 3
996564159  7  Tue Jul 31 02:22:39 2001  host A  [3]
unitEventTable.unitEventEntry.unitEventType.0 (Integer): 35
996564159  7  Tue Jul 31 02:22:39 2001  host A  [4]
unitLevel.unitLevelConfig.unitShelfSlotNum.0 (Integer): 0

I have successfully duplicated NetView traps in the past but I cannot
determine how to use snmptrap to duplicate the trap. Can someone offer some
suggestions, please?

Thanks in advance.

Ray.
