Re: [nv-l] Invalid SNMP Trap services packet

["Philippe Menard" <PME@fr.ibm.com>]

Carlos,

my experience is that "Invalid SNMP traps" are caused by OIDs containing integers above 2^31.
Some Alcatel devices in our network send such traps. I'm not aware of Ciscos sending them.

Hope this helps.
Phil.

Hi List (Win2k/7.1.3 FP1/ Sql2000) 

I am receiving this event from NV in the event log. 

"WARNING: invalid SNMP Trap Services packet from agent 10.105.31.8" 

I tried to check trapd logs and all i get is this: "1067270104 1  Mon Oct 27 10:55:04 2003 <none>                    T WARNING: invalid SNMP Trap Services packet from agent 10.105.31.8".  The ip address listed represents a Cisco router 2620.  I verified the routers running config and it does have the correct community names set up. Has anyone come across this before? Anyway that I can get more information on this event or trap? 

Thanks 

Carlos
