Port Security Traps Flooding NMS Servers

[slcornish]

All,

We have devices with port security set via command "set port security". The devices are expiring a maximum of 1 MAC address every minute and the action is to shutdown the port. An action of "shutdown" will trigger an SNMP trap to be sent to an SNMP trap receiver.

Is there a way to configure the device to not send the trap? We have all traps enabled except Authentication Failures and Syslog.

Please Advise.

Does the 6509 running cat6000-sup2k8.7-6-6.bin send trap 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.9 (sysConfigChangeTrap)?

You can verify that by examining the "show snmp notification mapping" output in enable mode on CatOS.

My 6509 doesn't have "notification" under "sh snmp".
