Leslie Great day for me to start!
Yes it really resolved my issue by adding a 0 at the end of
actual enterprise ID. Now I started seeing the event being flown towards TEC.
Even I had a look into MIB and I found the same, meaning the
Enterprise ID for the “trap category” is simply added with 0 to the actual
Enterprise ID. I think I should have been done this in first place. Anyhow, thank
you very much again.
MORAL OF THE STORYJ: Verify the trap category
enterprise ID extracted from mib2trap utility with actual MIB before loading that
into NetView.

I think that should really help me to identify the Enterprise
ID. Then I think, I can go ahead with changing the trapd.conf accordingly.
Thanks and let you know the result.
Cheers

Well, you could
adjust the formatting of the trap in trapd.conf to include the variables $E $e
$G $S, if they are not already there. Then you can look at them in trapd.log at
your leisure. The $E and $e will give you both the named enterprise, and the
raw number.

Yes, that is true.
So I presume if I add a 0 suffix to the enterprise ID may resolve the
issue.
Moreover, I have enabled the nvcorrd debug (nvcdebug –d rules) but the logs
are being written so fast that I am not able to follow it.
Would you please help me to get this sorted?
Thanks

Not so. The trap formatting is more forgiving. An enterprise of 1.3.6.1.4.1
in trapd.conf will match 1.3.6.1.4.1.* from a device. So there is hope.

RE: [NV-L] trapd forwarding to tec
Thanks Leslie!
I shall definitely do that and try to trace where is the root cause. I have
one more query, if the trapd.log is showing the message from device properly
formatted, does that mean the trap format is proper and enterprise ID also
matching.
I assume if the enterprise ID the device is sending is not matching with
the trap definition what we loaded on NetView, then the trapd.log will show
unknown format. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks

The most likely cause is that the traps from the devices and the traps you
are generating are not using the exact same enterprise, generic, and specific
trap ids. Devices don't always send what you expect from looking at the MIB. Sometimes
there is an extra 0 or something on the enterprise. To see what exactly is
coming in from the devices. you need to turn on tracing.
nvcdebug -d rules
Then watch in /usr/OV/log/nvcorrd.alog and blog to see how it is deciding
whether to forward or not.

RE: [NV-L] trapd forwarding to tec
Thanks James!
But I have the rule specified in my ruleset TEC_ITS.rs to forward the
events to TEC. Moreover when I try to send a test trap with the same enterprise
ID using SNMPTRAP utility, I can see these events are being forwarded to TEC.
Here my issue is with the traps forwarded by the actual device those are not
reaching TEC; though it manages to reach in trapd.log.
Also I checked and all the event property under discussion is in “Status
Events”.
Still need help☺

Senny
