Can a normal radius server (that support 3com VSA's) pick up logging events from the NMC? Does anyone have this working (using something other than 3com's S&A server)? thanks, -- Aaron Nabil - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

aaron.........yes. I believe I use to do this. Tell the nmc to use the radius server, and then configure a logging group, and then set the log events you wish to log to like "log" instead of "Trap"..........I think thats it................
thanks,

Yeah, I got it working. Had a couple problems, first being that the channel-associated traps don't actually work, only the modem-associated ones do. So I was looking for something that was never gonna come. What's troubling me now is that you can't set the modem traps via TCM at the card level, only the template level. You can set them via SNMP at the modem level, and they work fine, and that's what I'm doing. Problem is, they don't get saved. I don't use templates, so this is somewhat problematic. Even if I did use templates, I'm not sure how you go about copying a template to the modem automatically when it boots. What do template users do? Just refresh the modem, then save the modem to nvram? This still wouldn't save the traps setting. Maybe I'm missing something fundemental about templates, since I don't use them. Do the channels get automatically set from the templates if they've been saved from the templates (ie, the change indicator is not set) when they are booted? Now I can't even get the trap settings to stick in a template, they seem to get reset after a reboot even though I'm saving the template to nvram.

I must say...I've never seen the usefulness of templates, nor figured out how they were intended to be used. I've always just set the modems and saved the modem config to NVRAM. Fortunately, or unfortunately, I've never really made use of some of the more advanced features of the DSPs, (being more of an IP type of person...I don't like to muck with modems if I can avoid it) so this has been sufficient for what I've worked with. It would be nice to get a good explanation of how templates work, how they were intended to be used, and what benefit they would present if they were used in a typical ISP environment (since most of us here are ISPs I believe with a smattering of others). Sorry to respond to your question without answering it, but I figured it might be useful to broaden out the question a bit. :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

I thought I was the only one in the dark on all this! My biggest complaint to software and hardware vendors today is the lack of useable documentation. They create new features and commands without documenting what the intent is and how they may be used.

I agree, I just save to modems, I don't use templates either, mostly because 3com never did a good job of explaining them. Brian On Wed, 1 Mar 2000, Jeff Mcadams wrote:
