Maxime,

There should be always one node or interface down first before RFI generate
the unreachable events. This first event is necessary for RFI to start
looking for an unreachable subnet. However once the subnets are unreachable
there won't be any more events generated for nodes on that subnet. The way
it works is that as long as none of the router interfaces on that subnet
respond, there will be no polling and no update for any other object in
that subnet. Only the router interfaces are polled.

So when a subnet goes unreachable, you should have one interface or node
down event and then the "subnet unreachable" event and nothing more.

Hello
AIX 51.
nv 7.1.3 FP2

I have a question about RFI

I have received  unreachable traps from network node and interface in my
trapd.log file but I haven't received any node down or interface down which
has created all this unreachable node.

How is it possible to have unreachable node without a node down or
interface down before.

thanks.
