My question is, are these unsolicited traps from the device or are they netmon 
generated? If they are "node down" events that are generated by NetView, those 
should not occur on an unmanaged device (unless one interface is unmanaged and 
the others are managed).

If these are traps from the device, such as cisco link down traps, you must 
stop the trap at the source. For Cisco gear, you can use the command NO SNMP 
LINK STATUS on each interface you do not wish to send traps and the async users 
will no longer send traps when they connect or disconnect.

Also, use OVOBJPRINT to verify that the managed / maps counts are correct. If 
the node exists in more than one map and is unmanaged in only one map, the node 
is really still managed.

And, as a public service announcement, your NetView release level is 
out-of-support already. (Jan 30 2002 right?)

Hi.

AIX 4.3.2 Netview 5.1

Is there a way to configure Netview so that an unmanage object don't send
event.
The reason is that we are alerted by nodes and interface that i put on
unmanaged.

Thanks.

Ben
