RE: [nv-l] Traps still showing for device with SNMP traps disabled

["Barr, Scott" <Scott_Barr@csgsystems.com>]

I have a Cisco router doing this - I have run snoop traces from the NetView server and caught both port 161 and 162. I *NEVER* see a wrong community string go out but I get groups of 4 or 5 authentication failures (pointing out the netview server as the cause). I am clueless on it but it sounds like your problem. I also will look for a dupe address.

Stephen,

 

That could be the case, I will enable the NV_NETMON_REPORT_DUP_ADDRS_ONLY=TRUE in netmon, hopefully I will find the culprit.

Herman,

Could it be the case you actually have another box on the network that has a 'duplicate ip address' configured that is the same as your Cisco box? If so, then this other box could be sending the traps using the first one's IP address.
