  • 1.  Hardware Traps sent from console port of servers

    Posted Aug 05, 2011 01:03 PM

    Hi Guys,

    Environment : Spectrum 9.2 on Linux Red Hat on UCS hardware . SS and OC on same server .

    Had discovered and modeled a SysEdge Server (Linux Red Hat) running on UCS hardware. Now to receive hardware traps we had enabled trap forwarding on Cisco Integrated Management Controller of that server .

    Found out that the traps are being sent from the management port (console port or in HP servers called ILO port) of the server instead of the Ethernet ports . Spectrum is not showing these traps on the model as it doesn’t identify the IP address (given to console port) from where its coming. Have checked that SysEdge agent (or even SNMP) is not aware of the console port or the IP address it has been given as it works on OS layer. The traps are landing on Spectrum server (checked through tcpdump) .

    Any suggestions on how I can manage this and successfully receive hardware traps from the servers.

    Regards,
    Neeraj
