I have a customer witrh the following problem. Does anyone know the
answer to his question.
Thanks,
Tom
=======================================================================
Polycenter (MCC) 1.3 cannot target EVENTs to the Icon for interfaces on
a network node.
I've got a snmp device with 4 interfaces that is capable of sending linkup,
linkdown traps for the interfaces.
Under 1.2 and 1.3 Field Test, I was able to get this to work, since the
revenue ship, it has never worked.
What I am trying to do is target the linkup/down event directly to an icon
representing the interface, rather than the box the interface resides in.
For example:
notify request
entity=snmp * event=linkup,linkdown
target
entity event managed object target entity severity
snmp * linkup snmp #1 interface #2 snmp #1 interface #2 MAJOR
snmp * linkdown snmp #1 interface #2 snmp #1 interface #2 MAJOR
Under field test, this would result in the interface icon changing color.
(the interfaces were added to the map by looking into the snmp toolbox object)
Vital stats are
On DECstation 5000/240
Ultrix 4.3
Decnet OSI 5.1
Polycenter Framework (MCC) 1.3
The customer wants to know Is this intended to work in v1.3 and if so, what
changes to the syntax are required or when will a fix be available.
Workaround requires excessive customer intervention/programming to implement
functionality which was present in previous releases.
Articles in notes files show how to parse the event message and turn the
interface in question the appropriate color but this requires a good
deal of effort from the customer to setup.

| 5475.1 | SPR submitted ; a possible workaround... | ZTOIS1::VISTA | Renato VISTA, MCS/SPS France/Strasbourg | Mon Aug 16 1993 05:12 | 24 |
Tom,
I have submitting an SPR last MAY about the expected functionality
consisting to notify a subtree within a SNMP/MIB tree (standard,
extended & private) (ie SNMP * INTERFACE, SNMP * CHIPCOM CHIPMIB02
OLPORTTABLE (x,y), ...), using particularly the variables sent the
SNMP/Traps asynchronous events.
Further, to offer on my own customer platform, combining NOTIFICATION
FM, SNMP/TCPIP AM & COLLECTOR AM, I've developed a simple mechanism
allowing SNMP subtrees, decoding generic events such as LinkUp,
LinkDown, but also CHIPCOM events such as chipPortUP, chipPortDOWN,
chipSlotUP, chipSlotDOWN, chipTrunkUp, chipTrunkDOWN (both on ULTRIX &
VMS platforms) ; it is also possible to precise SELECTED <ENTITIES> (ie
SELECTED INTERFACE (1) (3) (9), ...
Depending of what you need and what you want to do, it is simply
possible to adapt these C-Shell/AWK procedures.
Renato
