Thanks james
mib2trap doesn't worked on it (because I have
notification-type for trap definition - so I suppose definitions are trap
V2 but the switch is sending trap V1 as far as the server can receive them). So
I think I added them manually. Anyway I tried $* and it prints all the
variables. I know I should edit the traps and put there $1, $2 and so on but I'm
not sure about the order.
maybe I should send you one trap
definition:
swFCPortScn NOTIFICATION-TYPE
OBJECTS {
swFCPortOpStatus, swFCPortIndex,
swFCPortName,
swSsn, swGroupName, swGroupType,
swGroupMemPos }
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION "A
swFCPortScn(3) is generated whenever an FC_Port
changes its
operational state. For instance, the FC_Port
goes from on-line to
offline. The VarBind in the Trap Data
Unit shall contain the
corresponding instance of the
FC_Port's operational status,
index, swFCPortName and
swSsn. swFCPortName, swSsn are
optional."
--#TYPE "A Fibre Channel Port changed its
operational state."
--#SUMMARY "Port Index %d changed state to
%d Port Name: %s and SSN is #%s, GroupName %s,GroupType
%s,GroupMemPosition %d"
--#ARGUMENTS { 1, 0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
}
--#SEVERITY INFORMATIONAL
--#TIMEINDEX 1
--#STATE OPERATIONAL
::=
{ swTrapsV2 3 }
thanks again
Lucian

Well, then it is just a matter
of changing your trapd.conf. The first question I might ask is, how did
you mess it up?
Where did you get the
trap definitions which are bad? That might tell you how to fix
it.
Do you have a MIB which
defines the trapd or not? Did you run \usr\ov\bin\mib2trap on it?
If not, this is not rocket science
in any case.
Pick a garbled message
and go look at it in trapd.conf. Those % signs are meaningless to trapd;
in NetView he only recognizes $
If you
change your trap message to be just $*, trapd will print all the variables to
the trapd.log and then you can look at them, and decide how you want the
message to read the next time and change it.

for J Shanks: sorry for this late response
yes, all 3 points below are correctly, and yes that's what I'm trying
to do: modify trap definitions with trap settings in order to have correctly
formated events
thanks!

OK, so you are saying that you get the traps but
they are garbled; the format is not what you expected. That's what I was
trying to clarify.
So that is good. It means (1) that the traps are being sent
by Brocade, (2) they are in SNMP V1 format so NetView for Windows can receive
them, and (3) they are being received, and formatted in some fashion,
even if not correctly, by what you have in trapd.conf.
So at this point you should be
able to edit the definition for these traps in trapd.conf with Trap Settings
and change it. Is that what you are having trouble with?
Or did you want to review the process by which you imported the trap
definitions into trapd.conf in the first place to figure out where it went
wrong?

in the mean time I realized that those traps are not
correctly because in their definition I have %d and not $d (for example) so
they are only some kind of models (?) as far as I understand....
referring to your question: I don' have "no fmt found" traps.
I'm sure lots of such traps are sent by brocade switches: my
events is somtehing like:
trapname: swFCPortScn severity :
Warning
source: Agent
category: Error
Enterprise: sw
Trap: 3
time:......
Node: 10.16.131.26 - and this is the switch
address
Description .... what I sent before
I'm not sure what you mean with "device or software log ...to
find out".
I don't think traps are sent in V2 format as far as I can see
them in my event console (even if uncorrecly formated) and I see them all in
trapd.log. BUT in my mib file these are notification-type (this is snmp V2
name for trap-type ?) and also I think I had some problem to import them with
mib2trap. in nv.log not traps are discarded!
I have ethereal installed to capture traffic especially on
port 162 but I don't see why to start capture at this moment as far as I'm
very sure these traps are from Brocade switch ...
thanks a lot James.. as allways your response are very good!
Lucian
ps
I hope I made my self clear... :)
What you installed are just definitions for how trapd
should display those traps IF he gets them.
Do you see anything at all?
I mean are there unformatted traps which say "no fmt found" or
some garbled version of what you expect?
If not, there are two
possibilities.
(1) Brocade is not sending the traps. Is there some
device or software log you can look at to find out?
(2) The traps are sent
in SNMP V2 format. NetView for Windows does not display SNMP V2 traps.
It has no code to interpret them, so they will be discarded. How
can you tell if you are getting V2 traps? Well, you might see error
messages in \usr\ov\log\nv.log about traps being discarded.
Alternatively you can answer both questions in a short time by
downloading a free tool off the web. It's called the Ethereal packet
analyzer and it's available from http://www.ethereal.com. It
installs easily in about five minutes. Then you can set a capture filter
for "udp and port 162" and see what is being sent to the MS Trap Service.
The packets will be nicely formatted.

| [nv-l] SAN switch
traps |

hi there list !
I want to send traps from a Brocade SAN
switch to a windows nv 713 and I receive allways messages like that:
-
PORT INDEX %d changed to %d Port Name: %s and SSN is #%s, GroupName %s,
GroupType %s, GroupMemPosition %d
I'm sure I imported correctly the
traps from the switch mib file so... what could be the reason? It really
doesn't help now.
thanks
Lucian
