Hi all,
My Orion server seems quite busy with all the traps it receives from my Cisco devices. Configuration on routers and switches are including a whole bunch of traps going from environment to IPsec status traps. This is all very cool but the trap database becomes huge and if no specific action / alert is taken behind, most of them are just useless.
After watching the trap viewer for some time, I'm just wondering : How can I possible manage this ? So many different OIDs with unclear text notifications won't help me much. Am I really supposed to go to Cisco.com and analyze each trap type to know if it's needed and what trap category it is from ? If I define certain situations like "My ipsec tunnel goes down" or "I have OSPF route recalculation", how should I proceed to end up with a rule on the Orion trap engine that will inform me clearly on what's going on ?
Sorry if this question is basic but it seems hard to make a link between an "snmp-server enable traps ipsec blablabla" and some cipSecMIBNotification flowing in the trap viewer.
