Dear All,
I keep receiving the below error message on the console when
ever I login to the CAT.
2006 Jul 03 05:21:42 %SNMP-5-SNMPAUTHFAIL:Authentication failed for message from 10.60.1.200
2006 Jul 03 05:51:51 %SNMP-5-SNMPAUTHFAIL:Authentication failed for message from 10.60.1.200
2006 Jul 03 05:51:51 %SNMP-5-SNMPAUTHFAIL:Authentication failed for message from 10.60.1.200
I would like to resolve this authentication failure issue.
Cisco Site says that these messages are purely informational.
I would like to resolve the issue, but not disable informational message
logging. I know if I disable Informational logging or disable SNMP the
message disapperas, but thats not a solution, its killing the problem not
resolving it.
Cisco Debug tool result:
. %SNMP-5-SNMPAUTHFAIL: Authentication failed for message from [chars]
This message indicates that the switch has received an SNMP message
that was not properly authenticated. [chars] is the source of the message.
Recommended Action: No action is necessary.
This message is provided for information only.
SNMP Setting on the Switch.
#snmp
set snmp community read-only abcd
set snmp community read-write abcde
set snmp rmon enable
set snmp trap enable module
set snmp trap enable chassis
set snmp trap enable bridge
set snmp trap enable vtp
set snmp trap enable auth
set snmp trap enable ippermit
set snmp trap enable vmps
set snmp trap enable entity
set snmp trap enable config
set snmp trap enable stpx
set snmp trap enable syslog
set snmp trap 10.60.1.200 abcd port 111 owner index 1
set snmp trap 10.60.1.200 abcd port 111 owner root@root [102783 index 2
set snmp trap 10.60.1.82 abcd port 111 owner root@root [104052 index 3
set snmp trap 10.63.22.170 abcde port 111 owner CLI index 4
I would like to curtail these erros from occouring on the CLI while
logged in using console. The 10.60.1.200 ip refers to CISCO works
running on the network. Both Switch and Cisco works have the
SNMP strings correctly configured.
Please let me know how to curtail these messages cause I need to
have message loggin for information level as well. But not the above
messages all the time.
Rgds.

The issue may be due to the CAM table. Clearing the CAm table will resolve the issues. If the issue is occured and the traps are not sent SNMP Server then the SNMP may generate the error.

This could be related to a bug in User Tracking. The bug is CSCse68260 and here's a workaround you can try:
Set the value of UTGetVlansOnDownPorts property to 0 in NMSROOT/campus/etc/cwsi/ANIServer.properties.
Then stop/start ANIServer process for change to take effect.
