No way. cat your ruleset again. If the nvcorrd.alog trace shows a leading dot, then that's what is in the ruleset he loaded. And that's what the nvcorrd trace you posted shows
My config is correct in the rules editor. But the output of nvcdebug -n is different. Looks like the Cisco guys might have solved our flooding problem. I still want to get this working for my own sanity though.

Hello, The forwardall.rs ruleset is used be default in the Event Display, so this is where it is probably getting loaded. There is no relationship between the rulesets that are used by ESE.automation, Event Display, or TEC forwarding using tecint.conf. Each one has it's own destination for forwarding events to, so the forwardall.rs in the Event Display will not override what the ruleset in tecint.conf for TEC forwarding.

You can also set the trapd to "Don't Log or Display" and this will keep it from the log as well, but then you'll have no way of knowing what's going on if start having a performance problem because too many of these traps are arriving. Cisco devices are highly configurable. You usually can configure just the traps you want and even the frequency that they are sent. Perhaps you should talk to your network guys about that and solve the problem at the source. Remember that getting a lot of unwanted traps isn't just a nuisance. It's a performance issue, not just for NetView, but for everyone else on the same subnet. That's their potential bandwidth you are eating and throwing away. As for your ruleset, I'm not sure what it is supposed to say. Greater than or less than the OID? Why not just "not equal to" ? But in any case you can tell exactly what ruleset you are running in two ways. If you are keeping an nvserverd.log, then the name will be in there, as will evidence of the reload. But whether you are or are not keeping the nvserverd.log, you can issue "nvcdebug -n" which will cause nvcorrd to write out in detail to his log what rulesets he is running. You can see the contents of the ruleset there. You can also debug this way by sending "nvcdebug -d all" and then observing what happens to each event as it is evaluated. Everything between the eyecatcher "Received a trap" and "Finished with the event" is nvcorrd processing that event.

We are getting way to many now that the network guys have turned it on. Is there a way to simply drop traps that have not been defined in the trapd.conf? I do not want to keep them in Netview or forward them to TEC. On a side note I am having trouble setting up simple rules. I am receiving a trap from Ciscoworks with the OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.502 I do not want this forwarded to TEC In the ruleset defined in tecint.conf I created an Event Attributes rule. It looks like this: Event Stream -> (EnterpriseOID <> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.502) -> Forward I ran the nvtecia -reload command to reload the ruleset and I am still getting these forwarded. Is there something else required to load modified rulesets?
