Hello Alan,
We have purposefully configured these routers to send
snmp traps (up/down/coldstart/conf change etc.) to our NetView server
and these traps are processed for some actions. So, stopping these
routers to send snmp traps will affect our monitoring
objectives.
I wanted to know, what could be the reason for "
PPP LCP Closed" error message. Are our routers configured wrongly
OR these errors shows that links are unstable.
This link is of multilink concept and 5 links of 2 mbps
pipe is grouped together to give 10mbps output. Obviously, all these
five links are configured on the same interface of the router and these
links does not have different IP address.
Regards,
Anupam

You most likely have the following configuration on your
router
!
! Host to send traps to
!
snmp-server host
your_trap_processing_host
!
! Send SNMP traps, notice
linkdown and linkup
! This can sometimes
depending on the IOS version look like this
!
! snmp-server enable traps snmp
!
snmp-server enable traps snmp
authentication linkdown linkup coldstart
warmstart
The solution is to
1. Disable sending SNMP traps. This will stop all
authentication, linkdown,
linkup, coldstart
and warmstart traps
no snmp-server enable
traps snmp
2. Disable a particular interface from sending
traps
interface
replace_with_your_interface
no snmp trap
link-status
Thanks

Hello,
We are having NetView 6.0.2 on AIX 4.3.3
From one cisco router, we are continuously receiving the
following kind of
traps saying 'PPP LCP
closed" :-
1059222261 11 Sat Jul 26 18:54:21 2003 CORT3 A
Cisco Agent Interface Down
(linkDown Trap) on
interface: Serial3/1:0 locIfReason: PPP LCP Closed
1059222279 11 Sat Jul 26 18:54:39 2003 CORT3 A
Cisco Agent Interface Up
(linkUp Trap) on
interface: Serial3/2:0 locIfReason: PPP LCP Open
What could be the problem with the router or its
configuration? Where
should I look into?
Regards,
Anupam Kr Anand
