[c-nsp] Cisco VSS monitoring through Syslog/SNMP-traps

[Sukumar Subburayan (sukumars)]

Dual-active cases (VSL down) cannot be detected by below.

We need to use the 'vswitch vsl' trap for that.

Hi Anthony,

I was just looking for this too and found out the following you can use to make a check:

MIB 		CISCO-VIRTUAL-SWITCH-MIB

Object  	cvsChassisEntry
OID 		1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.2.2.1
Type 		CvsChassisEntry
Description 	"An entry describes the present chassis information in
		the virtual switch architecture."

Object  	cvsChassisRole
OID 		1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.2.2.1.2
Type 		VSSwitchRole
		1:standalone
		2:active
		3:standby

Greetz,

Koen
