RE: [nv-l] MIB 2 TRAP

You have to match the enterprise id with a vendor name.
Here it  is   1.3.6.1.4.1.77.2.
Well 1.3.6.1.4.1 is iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprise   so you are looking for enterprise number 77 as assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA):
http://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers

77 is  LAN Manager, owned by Doug Karl at KARL-D@OSU-20.IRCC.OHIO-STATE.EDU.
From here you have to use your knowledge of the device to determine what software this might be.

Here is a better example:

no known format in trapd.conf(4)
1066071857 3  Mon Oct 13 14:04:17 2003  host.host.com     ?  Enterprise

How would you go about hunting down the MIB for this trap as an example for
my question?

NetView 7.1.3 AIX 4.3.3

I have a question that is more than likely a simple one. When I look at my
trapd.log and I see traps come in from hosts that are not defined:

1066067587 3  Mon Oct 13 12:53:07 2003 156.82.241.242            ? Agent Up
with Possible Changes (coldStart Trap) enterprise:ENTERPRISES
(1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1) args(0):

How do you take this information and hunt down the correct MIB to extract
the traps out of using the mib2trap utility?

I am attempting to clean up my trapd.log and take some actions on some of
these traps.

Right now I am working with the Microsoft messages and the Dell messages
that come from the Dell OpenManage applications.

Thanks for your assistance,
