(exactly for the reason you mentioned) vrrpv3RouterVrIdErrors should be used for counting the number of vrid error= s. Thanks Kalyan From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:vrrp-boun= [email protected]]<mailto:[mailto:[email protected]]> On Behalf Of tony vand= erpeet Sent: Monday, September 03, 2012 6:25 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [VRRP] VRRPV3-MIB protocol error trap question I am implementing the protocol error trap in the VRRPV3 MIB and have spotte= d a possible hole in the MIB. I wonder if this was picked up in discussions= and a work-around devised? When an advertisement is received with an unrecognised VR ID, a protocol er= ror trap is generated, with the object vrrpv3StatisticsProtoErrReason. This= object has value vrIdError(4) in this case, but what should the index of t= he object be? In particular, what should the VR ID part of the index be? I am inclined to create a variable binding with a fake OID using the unreco= gnised VR ID, since this will actually convey the information required (whi= ch VR ID is invalid, and the address type and ifIndex). What, if any, discussion has taken place around this issue, and was there a= ny conclusion reached?
