HELP!!! Firewall getting SNMP errors.

[ddevecka]

My firewall is getting an SNMP: SNMP_write: unable to generate a syslog trap. THis is causing it to be overloaded and I can't do anything to get it to stop. I have done a reboot.

What makes this real bad it the firewall is in a data center 2 hours away.

Help if you can.

Seems like some attack and the box is running out of memory to generate messages.

If you have a line like this:

snmp-server enable traps syslog

I'd remove it.

conf t
no 
snmp-server enable traps syslog

-KS

I will give this a try.
