Jeff,

I don't know anything about this 3COM
switch but if the event is predefined in the RMON-Event-Group, make sure
that the "eventType" is set to either "snmp-trap(3)"
or "log-and-trap(4)".
Also the "eventStatus" must
be "valid(1)".

From /usr/OV/snmp_mibs/rfc1271-RMON

....
          eventType
OBJECT-TYPE
           
  SYNTAX INTEGER {

          log(2),
           
          snmp-trap(3),    -- send an
SNMP trap
           
          log-and-trap(4)

is

case of
           
      snmp-trap, an SNMP trap is sent to one or more
           
      management stations."

  }
           
  ACCESS read-write

      "The status of this event entry.

           
      If this object is not equal to valid(1), all associated

Hope this helps.

Subject	[nv-l] #COM 3300 STACK UNIT REMOVED TRAP

    Does anybody know how to enable the
TRAPS for  3COM 3300 STACKS so 
that when a STACK MEMBER (unit) goes offline it will generate a trap?


    I receive traps from the 3300 switch but when a unit of the
stack is 
removed or fails I never get a trap.

    I do know that 3com uses RMON EVENTS to generate these traps
and 
there is one defined in the EVENT group called UNIT REMOVED but I do not
know how to enable it.   

Any ideas out there?


Thanks in advance.
