MAC Address High Port Count

Description

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

this is a threshold-based event and is disabled by default. It can be enabled through Threshold Settings by setting the number of MAC addresses you consider is a high MAC address count.

ENA does not raise this event against trunking ports.

macman compares the number of MAC addresses discovered on a port against the ENA threshold set for that port, by default set to three.

investigate why the device is handling so many MAC addresses, and monitor the impact on its performance.

If you judge the threshold setting is too low, you can amend it for the individual port, for all the ports on the current pot's device, or as a global change for all of the ports managed by the server.
If you judge the event is not appropriate for the port, you can disable it for the individual port, for all ports on the current port's device, or as a global change for all ports managed by the server.

MAC Address High Port Count Cleared

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates a previous MAC Address High Port Count alarm associated with this port has been cleared.		number of MAC addresses associated with the port is now within the set thresholds.	none.

MAC Address New

Description

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

ENA discovers one or more new MAC addresses on a port, raising one event for all of the new MAC addresses on the port. Entuity considers a new MAC address as one not listed in the retained history of MAC addresses for the current port. By default Entuity retains the last fifty MAC addresses discovered on a port, although this is configurable through
machistorylimit in entuity.cfg.

ENA does not raise events for:

newly discovered ports within a defined inhibit time, which prevents ENA from raising a torrent of events caused by ENA discovering new devices. By default this inhibit time is 24 hours, but it is configurable through the MAC Addresses threshold tab.
- a 24 hour inhibit period allows provost scheduled macman to run and discover MAC addresses, providing a base against which new and change events can be recognized. When macman is run through macScheduler then that baseline can be discovered earlier and ENA can ignore the inhibit time.
the very first MAC address(es) seen on a port, to avoid a blizzard of events when ENA manages new devices.
any mac addresses that recur on a port.

ENA checks for changes in port state every hour, and events are raised within that context. When the conditions of the new MAC address match the criteria of the MAC Address Port Change event, ENA raises both events against this port.

This is a threshold-based event and is disabled by default.

major (amber)

ENA discovers a new MAC address on a managed port, e.g. when a host, such as a PC, is plugged into an access layer switch that ENA manages, ENA raises a MAC Address New event.

when this event is not accompanied by a MAC Port Address Port Change event it is a
warning to you that a new host has connected to your network. Although the introduction of a
new host might be a benign event it requires further investigation as it may:

indicate a personally owned device has connected to the network, which may be compromised, e.g. insufficient anti-virus protection which could allow access to malicious worms, adware, viruses and other infectious material.
be the signature of the introduction of an unauthorized Wireless Access Point which might not have its security configuration enabled (they are unsecured by default) and would therefore invite intrusion to an otherwise secure network.

MAC Address Port Change

Description

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

When ENA discovers a MAC address that is new to the current port, but which it has a record of occurring on one or more other ports, it raises a MAC Address Port Change event.

ENA considers a change MAC address as one not listed in the retained history of ports for that MAC address, but other ports are listed in this retained history. By default, ENA retains the last fifty ports associated with a MAC address, although this is configurable through machistorylimit in entuity.cfg.

ENA raises the event against the first new port (in terms of lexicographic listing), specifying the MAC address, together with the ports it was last seen on and the ports it is now seen on. ENA checks for changes in port state every hour, and events are raised within that context.

When the conditions of the port change MAC address match the criteria of the MAC Address New event ENA also raises a MAC Address New event against this port.

This is a threshold-based event and is disabled by default.

A MAC address macman previously discovered on one port, or ports, it now discovers on an additional port. For example, when a host, such as a PC, is unplugged from one access layer switch that ENA manages and plugged into another, ENA raises a MAC Address Port Change event.

may indicate a security concern that requires further investigation.

Network Outage

Description

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

Network Outage events are raised on information ENA collects using traceroute and ICMP ping. It indicates an outage on your network, caused for example by node failure, unreachability of a managed port.

The Details column of the event indicates the particular category of the outage, how ENA identifies the outage category is a product of how it handles traceroute data. ENA discovers all IP addresses configured on a device and then determines which ports, if any, these IP addresses belong to. The success of this association is dependent on the structure of the SNMP MIB. Also if a port is unmanaged within ENA then an IP address cannot be associated with the port.

critical (red)

the Details column in the Events dashlet indicates the particular cause of the outage:

Managed IP On Device Unreachable: indicates that an IP address is not responding to ping:
- the port for the IP address is not managed by ENA but the device is managed by ENA. This may be caused by a routing problem.
- ENA cannot determine the port associated with the IP address because the IP address is not fixed to a port.
Port Unreachable: indicates that an IP address that is associated with a port is not responding to ping. When ENA is managing the device through a network cloud, ENA raises this event when some of the device's IP addresses are down. Event details lists the unreachable IP addresses in the cloud.
Node Unreachable: indicates that all IP addresses of a network node are not responding to ping. The node (typically a router or a switch) has transitioned to the down state. When ENA is managing the device through a network cloud, ENA raises this event when all the device's IP addresses are down. Event details lists the unreachable IP addresses in the cloud.
Entuity Server disconnected from network: indicates that all discovered IP addresses are not responding to ping, suggesting the disconnection of the Entuity server from the network.

in the Impacted column of the Events dashlet, ENA displays a count of the nodes, servers and applications impacted by the port down or node failure. You can view the list of impacted objects - or at least those components for which you have permission to view by clicking Show Details in the context menu.

When ENA raises a Network Outage event, the action you take depends upon the event type raised, on your network administrator role and whether you have physical access to the device:

Managed IP On Device Unreachable or Port Unreachable: for these two categories, check that the relevant network is routable from ENA.
- If the network is not routable and this is intentional, then to prevent the raising of this event, consider excluding the network from ENA management through ENA's configuration settings.
- If the network is not routable and this is a Port Unreachable network outage, check the operation status of the port. If this is down, it may indicate a damaged or pulled out cable, or that the device at the other end of the link has failed.
Node Unreachable: if all a device's IP addresses are not responding to ping and the device is also not responding to SNMP polling, it is probable that the node has failed. You can review the incident history for the device, for example for fan failure and temperature incidents. If the device does not restart, the only recourse is a physical inspection.
Entuity Server disconnected from network: from the Entuity server machine, use the ping utility that is installed as part of its operating system to ping network devices. If ping fails to elicit a response, check for Access Control Lists and firewalls that maybe blocking ICMP ping. If ping succeeds, check that the server's firewall permits applicationMoniotor access. You may have to add a rule for the ENA process.

Port High Inbound Discards (Dynamic)

Description

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

indicates that a port is dropping some packets in its receive buffers. Packet loss and transmission delays cause end to end application performance degradation, as applications timeout and re-transmit data intermittently. The discard rate is higher than the active dynamic threshold.

severe (orange)

lack of bandwidth on the port, transmit buffer sizes too small.

Use the Ticker tool to check the current outbound port utilization. If this is high, and a historical graph of port utilization reveals that, in general, the link is highly utilized, then more bandwidth may be needed.

Although the percentage level of discards the port reports may be high if it has a low packet throughput then you may want to amend the behavior of the event. You can activate a low traffic filter to eliminate nuisance events. Port Minimum Packet Rate for Discards allows you to set a packets per second threshold; only when this threshold is crossed could ENA potentially raise this event. When activated the threshold is included to the event details string, for example:

InDiscards=0.32% (threshold=1%) of 7.66Mpkts/300s. Packet-rate=25.54kpkts/s (threshold=0.001pkts/s)

Default severity level

Typical causes

Actions

indicates the device - specifically its SNMP agent - is not responding to SNMP requests, but it was available when ENA last attempted to ping it. It is the response to the ping that determines whether ENA considers a device to be up or down. SNMP Agent Not Responding events are not raised when a device is down.

ENA availability monitoring operates in one of two modes:

by ICMP ping to hte management IP address only.
by ICMP ping to all IP addresses on the device (default). The device is considered up when ENA receives one or more responses.

critical (red)

device configuration changes, e.g. to SNMP read community string or SNMP access lists.
device resource issues.

check that the SNMP community string of the device in ENA is still configured correctly.

SNMP Agent Responding

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates the device is now responding to SNMP requests, but was unavailable when ENA last attempted to Ping it. ENA pings the IP addresses of managed objects every two minutes.	information (green)	device configuration changes, e.g. to SNMP read community string or SNMP access lists. device resource issues.	none.

SNMP Agent Restart Detected

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates the SNMP service has restarted on the managed host, since Entuity last attempted to poll it. It also indicates the SNMP counters polled by Entuity for the managed host have been reset, which may explain any unexpected data spikes.	major (amber)	device restarted. manual restart of the SNMP agent.	none.

SNMP Authentication Failure

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates that a request did not get proper authentication, usually the result of a bad community string.	severe (orange)	invalid community was received in a message.	ping the device to ensure that it is still contactable. If the ping is successful, check that the IP address and SNMP community string of the device in ENA are still configured correctly (although it may not be the ENA server that is issuing the SNMP requests that are failing).

SNMP Response Time High

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates that a device's response to an SNMP request was greater than the set threshold.	severe (orange)	latency may be caused by the traffic load on the network, or by load on the device or intermediate devices.	in the ENA UI, navigate to the device in question and open its Summary dashboard to see and drill down into its latency chart. To view this device's latency performance within the context of other devices, run the Device SNMP Response Time report, which is an Administrative report.

WAN Port High Inbound Discards

Description	Default severity level	Typical causes	Actions
indicates that a WAN port (link) is discarding packets. This packet loss causes end to end application performance degradation, as applications timeout and re-transmit data intermittently.	major (amber)	when congestion occurs downstream in the network, and the device needs to free buffer space frames are discarded. For Frame Relay the switch dropping frames will select from its buffer the frames with the DE bit set first. If this is not sufficient to relieve the congestion, frames with DE bit clear will be dropped next.	use the Ticker tool to check inbound broadcast traffic on the port reporting discards. If broadcast traffic is light, telnet to the device and check system resources. Increasing the size of the receive buffers, and/or upgrading the device hardware (CPU and memory) may be necessary.
