Hi, I just set up SNMP v3 informs on our 2 x N7's.
Am I right in thinking that since SNMP v3 informs (vs. traps) require an acknowledgement to say they've been received - presumably they should buffer up if they can't reach the netsight server? I've noticed this in our event log from a while ago, before we had informs set up correctly. <164>Sep 4 18:57:48 10.111.0.100 Emanate[1.SNMPagent]SNMPv3 Informs queue overflow = 1 ...so there must be a queue. I tried this by changing the NIC's in the Netsight VMWare virtual appliance to be in an isolated vSwitch. I then logged in via SSH into and out of our 2 x N7's and asked a colleague to do the same. Then I also telnetted into one of them. When I put the two Netsight NIC's back into the correct VLAN, I expected 5 informs, but only received 3. Any ideas why these might have disappeared? And/or do you know what the limits of the buffer are?
