anm 4.1 support for receiving snmp traps from CSS / ACE

lanstreamer — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 17:43:10 GMT

Does anyone have an ANM 4.1 installation that is accepting snmp traps from their CSSes / ACEs?

If I configure CSSes / ACEs to send snmp v1 traps to anm, they never appear in the Monitor -> Events view.

I've tried both the ANM 4.1 Virtual Appliance and ANM 4.1 running on RHEL and it seems that there's nothing listening on udp port 162 to receive the snmp traps.

From the virtual appliance:

admin# show ports
Process : java (5999)
     tcp: 0.0.0.0:40000, 0.0.0.0:40001, 127.0.0.1:10023, 0.0.0.0:10443, 0.0.0.0:
10003, 0.0.0.0:10004, 0.0.0.0:8443
     udp: 0.0.0.0:39182, 0.0.0.0:10003, 0.0.0.0:6120
Process : rpc.statd (2348)
     tcp: 0.0.0.0:834
     udp: 0.0.0.0:828, 0.0.0.0:831

     tcp: 0.0.0.0:3306
Process : java (5992)
     tcp: 0.0.0.0:10444, 0.0.0.0:10445
Process : portmap (2312)
     tcp: 0.0.0.0:111
     udp: 0.0.0.0:111
Process : monit (2779)
     tcp: 0.0.0.0:2812
Process : java (2952)
     tcp: :::40002
Process : java (2966)
     tcp: :::40003
Process : sshd (2625)
     tcp: :::22
Process : ntpd (2606)
     udp: 127.0.0.1:123, 0.0.0.0:123, ::1:123, :::123

I notice that port 443 isn't in here and I'm accessing the web interface using this port so perhaps there's something else going on behind the scenes.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get snmp traps shown as events in ANM 4.1?

Thanks very much

hi.

as per documentation:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/data_center_app_services/application_networking_manager/4.1/user/guide/UG_monitor.html#wp1176870

you need to send snmpv2 to anm. can you try v2 traps and see if it works?

Regards,

Fadi.

Thanks for the suggestion. The CSS only supports sending v1 traps though!

The documentation you sent through looks like it's referring to SNMP gets from ANM towards devices rather than traps sent to ANM.

ANM 4.1 running on RHEL definitely doesn't have anything listening on udp port 162 to receive the traps.

I'm receiving traps on ANM 4.1 using RHEL.
