Hi,

I´m currently using Nagios 1.0 with nagios-plugins-1.3.0-beta2.
So far I have managed to get Nagios running and it performs OK!!

I have two Vanguard 6425 routers linking our central office and our
manufacturing plant.

I´ve get the routers to send the traps to the nagios server, and they
are being logged.

What I get on my log file is:
Feb 17 02:57:32 www snmptrapd[573]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (87016) Uptime: 5 days, 18:18:10.05, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "FRI-1 - LINK DOWN"
Feb 17 02:58:31 www snmptrapd[573]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (87015) Uptime: 5 days, 18:19:09.60, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "FRI-1 - LINK UP"
Feb 17 02:58:31 www snmptrapd[573]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (87012) Uptime: 5 days, 18:19:10.15, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "FRI-1s1 - FRAME SEGMENTER LINK UP"
Feb 17 02:58:39 www snmptrapd[573]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (43007) Uptime: 5 days, 18:19:17.60, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "FRI-1s1 - LINK UP"

This seems OK, but...along with that I get this also
Feb 19 16:33:03 www snmptrapd[560]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (154001) Uptime: 22:50:06.15, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "IPX.8   SAP bad typ 11 frm 501/00:01:02:67:4A:08"
Feb 19 16:35:56 www snmptrapd[560]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (154001) Uptime: 22:52:59.20, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "IPX.8   SAP bad typ 11 frm 501/00:02:A5:D8:C2:6E"
Feb 19 16:35:58 www snmptrapd[560]: 192.168.1.254: Enterprise Specific Trap (154001) Uptime: 22:53:00.75, SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "IPX.8   SAP bad typ 11 frm 501/00:02:A5:D8:C2:6E"

Q1) How do I identify this traps on the event-handler?? snmptrapd[573] and snmptrapd[560] seem to be different types
      of traps. How is this sent to the handler??

My snmptrapd.conf file looks like this
traphandle SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.449.2.1.1.1.7.0      /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/vanguard-handler

and my /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/vanguard-handler

#!/bin/sh

/bin/echo -e "$1\n" > test.run

exit 0

As long as I understand the documentation this should get my vanguard-handler run on every trap the
nagios server receives.

q2) Is there anything else to be set up??
I will run
# Submit passive check result to monitoring host
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/submit_check_result 
When I get this "simple???" setup running!!!
Any thoughts??!!

Thanks
