Objective


To troubleshoot ION device not sending SNMP trap when configured correctly.
 


Environment


  • Prisma SD-WAN
  • ION devices
  • SNMP Trap


Procedure


 
  1. Check the following points on SD-WAN GUI's configuration
    • Configuration differences between active ION and passive ION
    • Configuration of SNMP Trap
      • Server IP
      • Version
      • Security related: auth/encryption algorithms, phrase, etc

  1. Verify selected source interface does have IP connectivity to External Monitoring Server.
  2. Check SD-WAN Controller GUI's configuration has been pushed to ION.
  • dump snmptrap config
  1. Confirm ION is sending the Traps.
    • Enable debug-level debugging for facility "event" and module "evd_api".
      debug logging facility=event module=evd_api level=debug
    • Follow logs.
      debug logs follow event | grep trap

      ION will generate logs similar to the below one, in case an event happens.

      54:50.218 deb event_forw 2749   event      evd_api    COMMAND:snmptrap -s <SOURCE-IP>  -v 3 -u SD_WAN -l noAuthNoPriv <YOUR-SERVER-IP> '' .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.0.102 .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.3.1 s 1696414203643013608 .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.3.3 s 10.28.0.14 .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.3.4 s classic  .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.4.2 s " BranchName "  .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.5.1 s 1680621797229002608 .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.5.2 s " BranchName " .1.3.6.1.4.1.50114.10.1.1.4.1 s 1680622042251020508
      
      • <SOURCE-IP> is the ION's interface IP address from where the Trap is being sent
      • <YOUR-SERVER-IP> is the External Monitoring System configured in GUI within SNMP Trap configuration on each ION.
    • Run a packet Capture to verify ION's sending traps on the expected interface.
      tcpdump <interface> args="port 162" show
      • <INTERFACE> is the source interface configured to send the Traps.
  2.  Final important step is to disable debug-level logs once finished.
debug logging facility=event module=evd_api level=info
