RE: [nv-l] Mib2trap (RESOLVED!! FINALLY!!)

["Edwards, JT - ESM" <JEdwards3@wm.com>]

Folks, many many thanks!

 

Don and James jointly the solved the riddle of the mysterious Netegrity MIB. Indeed the Vendor wrote a very shabby MIB as both Don and James pointed out. It dawned on me when Don asked me to rewrite the addtrap script for the Netegrity MIB. James question about the comparisons sealed the deal and both guys clued me in on the discrepancy.

 

1.3.6.1.4.1.2552.200.300.3 .0 is what is written in the Netegrity MIB. IT is ABSOLUTELY wrong wrong wrong!

 

It should be 1.3.6.1.4.1.2552.200.300.3 . When I removed the .0 and readded things worked perfectly. I had to actually completely cleanup my trapd.conf file, but now things are perfect.

 

Now to have a stern talk with the Netegrity (Siteminder) folks.

 

You folks rock!  Many thanks once again!

When you ran mib2trap, and it produced an output script, what's in it?
Is there an addtrap for 1.3.6.1.4.1.2552.200.300.3 , generic trap:6 specific trap:3
or not? If not, then you are correct, the MIB and what the vendor's agent actually sends are not the same.
But you're the one with the MIB. You'll have to tell us.
