RE: [nv-l] Netview Rules Examples

Milt,

I'm hoping you like and use NetView on Unix.

 

If you want to see what the "Numeric character" variables are, you can setup a ruleset to echo "number 1 is $NVATTR_1, number 2 is $NVATTR_2, number 3 is $NVATTR_3, ....." >> /tmp/somelogfile.txt. Simply place your Unix commands in the Action node. So it will be a simple line like: Event Stream (Pizza Box) > Trap Node > Action. Very easy.

 

Have fun.

One other question:

Will these rules work with externally generated traps (ie, Cisco Devices), or do they have to be nv6000 generated events?

Pardon my newbie questions ;-)

Thanks

John:

I've looked at those, but maybe you can answer a question for me? :-)

When configuring the "Pass On Match" Node via the Rules Editor,  I am unclear as what the Attribute Comparisons Selections are that are Numeric characters only.  Are they arguments associated with a given trap?

Thanks

Have you checked out the rulesets that comes with NetView?  If you're
on unix
       find  /usr/OV -name "*.rs"  

and open em with /usr/OV/bin/nvrsEdit.  The netview administrator's
guide goes through some of the example rulsets if memory serves.
