We are working with LANNET MIB most of the thinks work fine but
We are encountering a problem in using GETEVENT and decoding Enterprise
Specific Traps.If on element in the varbind list is element of a table ,
it's OID comes with an index wich is not decoded and displayed so from
a varbind list
OID.index = Value
OID gets translated to name according to loaded MIB.
Value is displayed
Index is not displayed.
The index value is relevant for the application and needs to be
decoded and displayed.
We will appreciate some help on this subject.
Regards

Is the Index defined in the VARIABLES clause of the TRAP-TYPE defn. in the LANNET mib? If it isn't, then there is no way it can be displayed by DECmcc. All trap variables that are to be displayed by DECmcc need to be declared in the VARIABLES clause so that corresponding event arguments can be created by MTU and loaded into the dictionary. Only objects that are loaded in the dictionary can be shown by DECmcc. Rahul. | |||||

R.1
The index is not defined in the VARIABLES clause of the TRAP-TYPE defn.
DAN ROMASCANU who wrote the MIB and TRAP-DEF of LANNET insist that
DECmcc does not behave according to the standards.
He said that if one element in the varbind list is element of a table
,vector known by DECmcc throw the MIB,this one element includes VALUE
follow by INDEX in one stream .DECmcc ,always according to DAN,
supposes to translate this element to VALUE and INDEX according to
loaded MIB without any definition "in the VARIABLES clause of
the TRAP-TYPE defn",DECmcc has to do the difference between scalar
element and vector element.
If you want/can look at the MIB I put it in : 52767::lannet.txt.
Our problem concern for ex:
lntGroupDeEnrolmentTrap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE LANNET
VARIABLES { genGroupType }
DESCRIPTION
" This trap is generated when the sensor board is extra
chassis. The information transmitted contains the slot
type of the board. The slot number (genGroupId) defines
of the variable genGroupType. The trap is enabled/disab
chLntAgGroupEnrollDeenrollTraps."
::= 4
lntGroupEnrolmentTrap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE LANNET
VARIABLES { genGroupFullConfig }
DESCRIPTION
" The trap is sent when the software error in the agent
drivers occurs. The trap is enabled/disabled by chLntAg
::= 6

Unfortunately, the SNMP AM does not support that sort of behaviour at the moment. I don't know how many generic management stations do at the moment. That's something we might want to add in a future version. Rahul. | |||||
