Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 not pulling any SNMP data

ciscosnmp

Good evening,

I have setup Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 and, though I have added manually my 4 network cores as devices without any problem, I can't get a single trap or a single SNMP information to be pushed into my Cisco Prime Infra.

Here is my SNMP config on my core :

snmp-server user *edited* *edited* v3
snmp-server  group *edited* v3 noauth notify *tv.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF0F

Basically all traps are enabled but absolutely nothing is showing up in my Prime Infra except that my 4 devices are "Reachable".

Here is a show snmp on the same device :

sh snmp

38371069 Response PDUs

13 Trap PDUs

SNMP global trap: enabled

SNMP agent enabled



SNMP logging: enabled

Logging to *edited*, 0/10, 13 sent, 0 dropped.

Can anyone point out what is wrong or missing in my configuration? I can't seem to single it out myself.

Thanks

In the "show snmp" traps are being generated, 13 of them, and you have snmp-server enable traps syslog set.

Few things you can do is add a logging ip address if one doesn't already exist or an additional address and throw up a simple syslog server and do a few things to generate traps like conf t or add a vlan and delete a vlan as you have these set to trap. If you don't to use vlans then add a loopback and shut/no shut it a few times.

Appears you are dealing with these remotely. I always open two sessions to the box. Session one, I execute "no debug all" then arrow up then switch to the other session and do term mon and then debug snmp packet. The first session is a failsafe so I can turn off debugging with hitting return if for some reason debug is taxing the box. School of remote access hard knocks.

While debug is running do conf t and exit a few times and/or add delete vlans and you will see the traps being generated and if they are pointing to the desired ip.

Should see something similar to these below.

6506E#term mon
6506E#debug snmp packet
SNMP packet debugging is on

6506E#sh run

In our shop we only use PI for wireless management controllers and users, not switches. Third party and open source for switches. We have logging for all available traps to dual syslog servers for compliance and redundancy so I understand your frustration when traps aren't working as expected.

Also if you aren't are the latest patches in the 2.0 train I would highly recommend it. 2.0 is not the most stable from our experience until the patches are added. fwiw
