Monitor SNMP Trap as individual Host

Post by mejokj »

Hi Team,

We have tried to configure the SNMP trap as an individual host instead of all traps coming under a single host. But it is not working.

Please see the below example, we have tried to monitor a device (AP) with its MAC address (APxxx.xxx.xxx) as an individual host. But it comes under WLC host (controller---10.X.X.X).

Sun May 23 14:48:15 2021 .1.x.x.x.4.1.x.x.x.x Normal "Status Events" 10.X.X.X - Received trap "bsnAPDisassociated" with variables "enterprises.X.x.6.x.x0.0:X X X X X X enterprises.x.x.x.x.x.x.0:APxxx.xxx.xxx"

Could you please suggest this. We have already tried SNMP trap interface options.

Thanks

I assume the traps are sent by the WLC which is why it's showing that, try changing the trap definition to use one of these instead of $r or $aR:

Code: Select all

$A - Trap agent host name (see Note 1)
$aA - Trap agent IP address
