2710.0. "%MCC-W-VALUEMISSING, the attribute/argument value is missing" by FOUR62::LICAUSE (Al Licause (338-5661)) Tue Apr 07 1992 14:15

This question comes from an ignorance of  SNMP TRAPS in general but I've asked
ignorant questions before.

V5.5 VMS, X1.2.15 DECmcc.....UCX V2.0.

I've issued the following command;
    mcc> set snmp ds700_4 snmp snmpEnableAuthenTraps

DS700_4 is a DECserver 700. What attribute am I missing when trying the
command?

Does the fact that I'm running V2.0 UCX have any bearing?

Thanks,
Al

2710.1	Provide a value for the attribute you're trying to set ...	DANZO::CARR		`Wed Apr 08 1992 15:19`	9
	Al, It appears that you haven't provided a value for the snmpEnableAuthenTraps attribute (valid values are enabled,disbabled). Example: MCC>set snmp ds700_4 snmp snmpEnableAuthenTraps disabled Dan
2710.2	thanks, but is something missing?	FOUR62::LICAUSE	Al Licause (338-5661)	`Wed Apr 08 1992 17:18`	23
	Dan, thanks for the info...... This worked, but when I used the FORMS interface and entered: Verb: set Entity: snmp ds700_4 snmp Arguments: snmpEnableAuthenTraps <cursor left here Qualifiers: When I hit the HELP key at the end of the Arguments line, shouldn't I have been prompted with ENABLE or DISABLED? By the way, the command completes, but returns with "no response from entity". I can issue any other command to the same entity and it returns the requested information. Is this command broken or is the DECserver 700 broken? I do have my workstations IP address set for community "PUBLIC" on the DECserver. AL
2710.3	PUBLIC or public?	IMDOWN::SYSTEM	Save a tree: kill an ISO working group.	`Thu Apr 09 1992 09:50`	14

(I've been bitten by this a few times...) There is a difference between "PUBLIC" and "public". ./doug

	Also make sure that community has been set up for both read and write access. rahul.
2710.5	thanks....	FOUR62::LICAUSE	Al Licause (338-5661)	`Thu Apr 09 1992 15:50`	7
	thanks to both .3 and .4. Unfortunatley, I had to ship the DECserver 700's back.....they were loaners. Hopefully someone else might get to try this and benefit. Al
