Using the event monitor option, you could "SYSLOG" report back to WUG,
or if your script can pump the bad results into an NT application log,
then you could use the NT Log checks to fire off alerts for only those
alerts that need to be sent out (that's what we do with our OPCON
scheduler application which schedules all of the Mainframe jobs and it
worked quite well before they decided that there just weren't any jobs
that they needed to have done that required anything more than manual
hourly monitoring by the operations team).

Thanks, I think I decided that I am going to have to setup a separate
machine/process that has a trap watcher which processes/filters the
traps
from these devices. When it decides that there is a trap of interest it
will
fire off a trap to WUG....
I got to thinking along these lines and it sure would be nice if WUG
could.
1. Bring in an problem alert. (could be a switch/router down etc)
2. Fire off a batch file/program which attempts remediation on the
problem.
This batch file depending on the results of the remediation
would
either fail or succeed.
3. After the batch is done (pass/fail) WUG would either continue the
notification process or stop.

There are some command line syslog tools that you could incorporate
into
your batch file and then alert on the results of your filter back to
whatsup.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Filtering of SNMP traps
I am a new member of the forum. I have Whatsup Gold 8.04 and have a
question. I am working with a wireless accesspoint that can send SNMP
traps
when it detects other accesspoints that are potentially "Rogue"
accesspoints.
I have setup WUG to notify on these traps but the problem is that the
AP's
also report my known accesspoints. What I need to do is setup WUG to
filter
the traps so it only sends the notification message if they are not in
the
known good list.
I set up WUG to fire off a batch file that decides if it is good or not
but
don't know how to report the result back to WUG so it can notify me.
Is
there a way from a batch file to fire off an WUG event?
Thanks
Tom Davis
