Re: [NV-L] Trap OSPF

[Leslie Clark <lclark@us.ibm.com>]

By design, the node and interface status
reflected in the map is IP status, unmodified by any traps received. You
can alter that if you wish, but be aware that a change in IP status will
override your status.

 I'm not positive of the menu selections
on the windows platform any more, but you can change the definition of
the trap to make it a Status Event, and then set the status. Really, the
design of the product is that you should create some object of your own,
and change its status, but it works well enough, I think, just changing
the status of the node that sent the trap. I suggest setting it to Marginal.
You will need to know the Enterprise number and the Generic and Specific
trap ids for the exact trap you want to modify. If there is a clearing
event, (like a down and an up), you can set the status back to Normal.


For an operator to clear the status
that was set by an incoming trap, you only need to Acknowledge/Unacknowledge
the node. That will restore the status to the IP status.

Subject	[NV-L] Trap OSPF

Hi 

I am working with netview 7.1.4 on a W2K station. 

I'would like to know how to change the status of a router when i recive
an OSPF trap when my router lose a neigbors. 

I am able to issue the command nvecho when I recive the trap and it works
fine. The probleme is that my router is sill green on the map because all
its interfaces are up. How can I change its status of the router so the
color of the router change to red on the map.
