Hi All,
I am configuring SNMP to monitor the status of EIGRP,But if the EIGRP neighborship is down the SNMP trap is not generated on the rotuer.
I have tried to sniff the port as well and i am sure the traps are generated on the router.
Can anyone help me to achieve ??
Please find my config
snmp-server community public RO
snmp-server trap-source Vlan3
snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication linkdown linkup warmstart
snmp-server enable traps eigrp
snmp-server host 10.10.10.1 public eigrp snmp
Thanks

Looks like there're very fews EIGRP traps possible :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t14/feature/guide/gteigmib.html#wp1067306
The EIGRP MIB provides limited notification (TRAP) support for stuck-in-active (SIA) and neighbor authentication failure events. The snmp-server enable traps eigrp command is used to enable EIGRP notifications on a Cisco router. Support for TRAP events is not activated until a trap destination is configured with the snmp-server host command and a community string is defined with the snmp-server community command. EIGRP notifications are described in Table 6.
However, your router would have generated the pertinent syslog messages:
I'd simply monitor such events with a syslog analysis tool. But if you must receive such notification as an SNMP trap on 10.10.10.1, you could either
1) configure:
add
snmp-server enable traps syslog
change
snmp-server host 10.10.10.1 public eigrp snmp
to
snmp-server host 10.10.10.1 public eigrp snmp syslog
or 2) configure an EEM applet to generate an SNMP trap catching the "DUAL-5-NBRCHANGE: Neighbor X.X.X.X () is down" syslog pattern.

I just used this thread to set up my syslog messages reporting EIGRP neighbor state changes to my network monitoring server. THANKS for the help. If I could I would mark this one as 'Answered - Excellently'. thanks for your help, the EIGRP MIB, doesn't do much for me. Now my 4 WAN connected sites are being monitored properly.
thanks again,
ryan
