hi!

ok, i dont know anything about the SCE, but judging from
the xml provided the rule says:

* fire only one(1) "Authentication Trap Summary" event
* for any "nv_generic = 4"
* within 60000 (milli-seconds?)
* for each "hostname"

it does not specify that the duplicate events should be blocked.

shouldn't the following rule be (more) correct (?):

<rule id="netview.dupAuthRemove">
  <eventType>TEC_ITS_BASE</eventType>
  <duplicate timeInterval="60000">
     <cloneable attributeSet="hostname"/>
     <predicate>
       <![CDATA[
        &nv_generic == "4"
       ]]>
     </predicate>
  </duplicate>
  <triggerActions>
    <action function="TECSummary" singleInstance="false">
      <parameters>
        SET:msg="Authentication Trap Summary"
      </parameters>
    </action>
    <action function="Discard" singleInstance="false"/>
  </triggerActions>
</rule>


i may be wrong but that's what i can make out of:
