SNMP Daemon Changes ===================
A new version of the SNMP daemon for the T3 network was installed on June 26. This version supports MIB-II variables for the T/960 ethernet cards (ifInUcastPkts, ifOutUcastPkts, and ifInErrors), and also includes enhanced configuration support for monitoring T3 DSUs. A new SNMP client for the NOC to control the T1 Cylink ACSUs which are part of the T3 backbone has been implemented. This avoids use of a separate dial-in connection to these CSUs.
New SNMP variables have been added to furthermonitor the DSU synchronization problem mentioned above.
The new SNMP daemon still does not report the MIB-II variables correctly. Here is the illustration: SNMP response from enss139.t3.nsf.net ...
