2957.0. "DECrepeater 900tm traps since upgrading" by CSC32::MAULUCCI () Mon Nov 06 1995 10:56

    A customer that I am assisting has a DECrepeater 900TM in a DEChub 900.
    The customer pulls up hubwatch through Polycenter netview, his
    DECrepeater was previously at v1.1.0 firmware. Since upgrading the
    firmware to V2.0.0 he has been seeing the traps attached below, the
    information was handwritten by the customer and fax'd to me so there
    may be some inaccuracies with the information because of that:
    
    
    
     A RMON falling alarm repeater mau repeater information
    repeater mau total media unavailable 0
    fell below threshold 1; value = 21: (sample type = 2)
    specific = 2
    enterprise= rmon 1.3.6.1.2.1.16
    
    A RMON rising alarm: repeater repeater information repeater health text
    changes 0
    
    exceeded threshold 1; value 40 (sample type =2; alarm index =4)
    specific: 1
    generic : 6
    catagory: threshold events
    enterprise: rmon 1.3.6.1.2.1.16
    source: agent (A)
    hostname: rep2.shost.ksc.com
    severity: critical
    
    RMON rising alarm
    repeater extensions, repeater basic package, repeater repeater
    information 5.0
    exceeded threshold 1; value 83 (sample type =2; alarm index = 5)
    
    specific: 1

    source: agent (A)
    hostname: rep2.elrio.ksc.com
    severity: critical
    
    MTI.fddi.ksc.co  N elrio2.elrio.ksc.com
    
    reported different link address than obtained from mti.fddi.ksc.com by
    snmp
    
    
    specific: 58982401 (hex: 3840001)
    generic : 6
    catagory: mode configuration events
    enterprise: netview 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1
    source: network (N)
    hostname: net1.fddi.ksc.com
    severity: indeterminate
    
    
    I have some questions regarding this, 
    1. is this a repeater or polycenter issue
    2. it appears that a device reported a different link address than
    another device. Is this what is causing the alrams ?
     
    Any suggestions clarifications (not sure what all of the fields mean)
    are welcomed. 
    
    Thanks,
    Gene
