James this is what I got from the trace.  Does this mean that the routers are issueing SNMPv2 traps?

Mon Oct 27 14:45:23 2003 process_event: received trap from 10.105.31.8
Mon Oct 27 14:45:23 2003 process_event: de-queued 0 bytes.

Mon Oct 27 14:45:23 2003 process_event: received trap from 10.105.31.7
Mon Oct 27 14:45:23 2003 process_event: de-queued 0 bytes.

If you think I should send this to support let me know so I can open a PMR.

Thanks.

Carlos

You would have to turn on the trapd trace and examine the incoming data.  Normally this a job we leave to Support.


To turn on the trace on Windows, you edit the ovsuf file to add the -t flag with a log name, like this

       0:trapd:\usr\ov\bin\trapd.exe:OVs_YES_START::-z ,-a5000,-m1000,-t\usr\ov\log\trapd.trace:OVs_WELL_BEHAVED:120::

or add that option in the trapd.lrf and do "ovdelobj trapd.lrf" and then "ovaddobj trapd.lrf" from the \usr\ov\lrf  directory.


Note that you might get this message if your Cisco device is configured to send SNMP V2 traps.  NetView for Windows does not support them.  To him they are invalid and are discarded.

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
