RE: [NV-L] Trying to define TRAPs from F5 WANJet MIB

["Evans, Bill" <Bill.Evans@hq.doe.gov>]

That's a new format on me.  I'm used to the V1 trap definitions looking like this 3-com example.  You then run "mib2trap" on the mib and it creates a file containing "addtrap" commands.  V2 traps contain a "NOTIFICATION-TYPE" header. 

 

 repPortErrors TRAP-TYPE
         ENTERPRISE        a3Com
         VARIABLES       {
                                 mrmMonPortErrorsPer10000Packets,
                                 gaugeRecoveryLevel,
                                 gaugeSamplePeriod,
                                 gaugeSamplesPerAverage
                         }
         DESCRIPTION "
 This trap is sent when the errors per packet exceeds the the defined
 threshold."
         ::= 42

Subject: [NV-L] Trying to define TRAPs from F5 WANJet MIB

I've been trying to load the Traps contained in a F5 Network WANJet MIB.  I've tried loading it in NetView, NNM, and OIDView before I decided on dissecting it.  I noticed that there weren't any TRAP-TYPE objects located in the file.  After speaking with their support they stated the Trap section of file is in v1 format and not V2 and because of that NetView won't be able to read the MIB.  Does this make any sense?  Doesn't seem to me.  Here is an excerpt of the Trap definition section of the MIB.
