IOS IP Service Level Syslogging Question

In order to configure Embedded Event Manager I’m trying to buffer log ICMP Echo reply failure via IP SLA.  Entry 103 also triggers HSRP; this works a treat; however, I cannot buffer log the failed SLA event.  Here’s my config; where have I gone wrong?

Cust_Rtr#sho ver

Hello,

Seems like "snmp-server enable traps syslog" does not generate any syslog messages but it generates SNMP traps. You need to configure "snmp-server enable traps rtr" to send those traps to the SNMP server.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Unfortunately, appending snmp-server enable traps rtr made no difference.  Debugging snmp yielded the following:

Jul 21 11:30:16.912: SNMP: V1 Trap, ent rttMonNotificationsPrefix, addr 80.193.212.65, gentrap 6, spectrap 2
rttMonCtrlAdminTag.101 = 
rttMonHistoryCollectionAddress.101 = 02 00  00 01   
rttMonCtrlOperTimeoutOccurred.101 = 2

confirming that it was indeed working all the time.  Indeed, it continues to work having also removed snmp-server enable traps syslog.

I have now built a EEM applet that's triggered by the corresponding snmp trap to undertake the necessary remedial work to recover from an indirect ethernet failure.

event manager applet IPSLA101Failure
event snmp oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.2.9.1.6.101 get-type exact entry-op eq entry-val 1 exit-op eq exit-val 2 poll-interval 10
action 1.0 syslog priority informational msg "Testing-Indirect Ethernet Failure"

This indeed populates the local syslog buffer.

Job done; thanks for reviewing and contributing.

Regards
