[nv-l] incorrect interfaces

["Karl Prinelle" <Karl.Prinelle@elyzium.co.uk>]

Hi list,

 

NV 7.1.2, w2k sp2

 

I'm having trouble with a set of devices which are Wellfleet series 7 routers.  Each device has the following interfaces;

 

isdn backup

10.64.231.254 (lan ethernet)

10.67.28.2    (wan)    (single interface card, multiple addresses)

10.68.28.2    (wan)    (single interface card, multiple addresses)

 

the two x.x.x.2 frame-streams come up to different sites which themselves are connected - they're just dr routes.  It's the route cost that controls which route is used - 1/2 the estate is one way, half the other.

 

I've checked through telnet and the lan/wan interfaces are up, & the isdn is down (a good thing).

In NetView, it has discovered the device, but is showing;

10.67.28.2 as down

10.68.28.2 is up

0.0.0.0 is up  (I'm assuming that's what it thinks the isdn line is on).

10.64.231.254 is up

 

Demand poll returns the same thing as what netview can see - it thinks one of the frame interfaces has an Oper status of down, but admin status of up.

If I use the snmp browser it shows me that there are 3 interfaces & they are all up.  The descriptions of the interfaces say they are one ethernet and two frame-stream.

 

Anyone got any thoughts about how to convince NV to agree with the router & what is that 0.0.0.0 interface???

 

Many thanks in advance

 

Karl
