I can understand you dont want a debug all being sent to Netview, however
some networks are very sensitive to port up/down messages.
Your situation does make sense, you dont want to hear everything the
infrastructure has to say. However, I read from the original email that
some syslog messages were not traps, ones that they were interested in.
Hopefully it is more then STP re-configs...

Cisco writes everything to syslog and only sends traps for specifically
configured events.
I am monitoring the Cisco syslog and have asked the router team to STOP
sending
traps to NetView. I was receiving tens of thousands of traps daily.
Most were ports going up/down on switches.
trapd, nvcorrd, ovactiond and actionsvr were being overwhelmed by the
volume!
The script I posted does e-mail and paging through Telalert.
It would be easy to generate an SNMP trap or (w)postemsg also.

I would also be interested in hearing examples. It seems a bit scary that
Cisco would write events to syslog but not send traps.

My experience says that I have not seen a syslog message on a router that is
not sent as a trap. Do you have an example? Does the router in question
support logging of various severity levels? What version IOS too would be
helpful.

Group,
I have a question that is sort of off topic, but I am sure that someone in
this forum has some experience.
We are looking for a way to monitor messages coming from Cisco devices. We
have a central sislog running on a AIX box that all of the Cisco devices in
our network write to. We also receive some traps from the devices, but there
are syslog messages that are not traps that we are interested in. We are
trying to impliment a TEC syslog adapter but the limitations of the adapter
don't allow for the granularity that we are looking for. I was just wonderg
how other companies have implimented a Tivoli/Cisco solution.
Any information anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Scott Bursik
