Hi!

I have a Cisco based VPNsetup where the routers use the global routing table to route IPSEC traffic and a customer routing table (VRF) to handle the unencrypted traffic.
Now I have to send SNMP traps from the customer VRF to my Netview server, this is accomplished by configuring the router with the following:

snmp-server hosts x.x.x.x vrf customer-vrf community

So far this works, but all traps I get to my netview server are malformed. Here is an example of a TTY trap, (1.1.1.1 = agent, 2.2.2.2 = Netview server)

Notice that the Netview servers IP is inserted where the agent IP should be (along with a big bunch of crap :-)) and there looks to be some numbers missing in the OID string.
1.1.1.1.50528 > 2.2.2.2.162:  C=xxxxxxxx Trap(35)  .1.3.6.1.4.1.9 [inetaddr len!=4]2.2.2.2.0.162.99.117.115.116.110.101.116 enterpriseSpecific[specific-trap(1)!=0] 475917428[|snmp]

This is the correct version of the same trap
1.1.1.1.55799 > 2.2.2.2.162:  C=xxxxxxxx Trap(35)  .1.3.6.1.4.1.9 1.1.1.1 enterpriseSpecific[specific-trap(1)!=0] 2585148274 .1.3=[|snmp]

IOS version is 12.3(6), so it's quite new.

I searched Cisco's site but haven't found anything useful yet.
Has anyone worked with a similar setup and gotten this to work?
