You could try binding to a unique ip on each cluster member, that
worked when we had a similar issue.   There are other ways around it but
that is the simplest from what we found. 

If that won't work for you let me know we have some other things that
we have done to work-around this issue, such as changing the agent/trap
address before it hits Spectrum.

Hi all, 

  

We have a bunch of devices that are set up with what should be an
illegal IP(1.1.1.1/1.1.1.2/etc) for communication within a cluster. 
Somehow while it was being configured it seems one of these devices sent
a trap with the source address of 1.1.1.1 and the event/alarm was
asserted to each of these devices in Spectrum. 

  

No doubt the device shouldn't have sent it, but it sent a bunch of
people chasing a ghost on a lot of devices. Confirmed with CA that it is
the expected behaviour in Spectrum for a trap received from a duplicate
IP address. 

  

Wondering if anyone has thought of a workaround to this? 

  

Thanks, 

...rod
