snmp auth failures during discovery with multiple com strings

Dears,

Does anybody know this?

If the ANI discovery process sees an IP address in the neighbour table of a device, will it;

- look in an IP interface table in the database to see if it knows the IP address and can link it to a known device and community string?

or

- try all known community strings until one matches or until it runs out of strings to try?

Or does it work differently?

The “Troubleshooting the ANI Discovery”, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/sw/cscowork/ps563/products_tech_note09186a0080094949.shtml, doesn’t answer this.

Cheers,

Michel

I am currently seeing these very same issues, also, my discovery hangs. I am also seeing alot of SnmpReqTimeoutExceptions in the log file, and the Java process is pegging the CPU. Are you seeing these problems as well?
