Using the Administration Tool
RPF Polling
Using the CMM, you can monitor RPF failures for a particular source and group on any selected router.
If any monitored source and group begins to experience RPF failures that rise above the delta, then
SNMP traps can be sent, and a report generated, which you can view under RPF Failures (see the
“RPF
Failures” section on page 1-51
).
You can select the source and group from the list, or you can enter them manually. If there are a lot of
sources and/or groups, you can use the filter option, to ensure you are selecting an S,G that actually
exists in the network. The filter option displays only the sources for a selected group, or only the groups
for a selected source. To reset the lists, click
Reset S,G Lists
.
