The ESRP Manager
ESRP trap events will also be recorded in the EPICenter Event Log, which you can view using the
EPICenter Event Log Report (see Chapter 17). ESRP state change traps will be recorded in the EPICenter
Alarm Log (see Chapter 5).
NOTE
ESRP Traps are not implemented in ExtremeWare versions 4.x or 5.x. Thus, for switches running those
versions of ExtremeWare, state changes and other ESRP updates will only be reflected after the next
device polling interval.
Note that an ESRP-enabled VLAN can be monitored by EPICenter as long as at least one of its
ESRP-enabled switches is managed by EPICenter (i.e. is included in EPICenter's device database). If
there are other ESRP-enabled switches in that VLAN, their ESRP status will also be displayed in the
ESRP Manager, even if they are not being managed by EPICenter.
The Detailed ESRP Information view displays the following information:
• Switch Name—The name of the switch, if known. (If the switch is not being managed by EPICenter,
this field will contain "N/A.")
• MAC—The MAC address of this switch.
• State—The current state of the switch—Master or Slave.
• Priority—A user-defined value, between 0 and 254, which can be used by the ESRP election
algorithm in determining which switch is the Master switch. The default is 0.
• To Master—The number of times this switch has transitioned to become a Master.
• To Slave—The number of times this switch has transitioned to become a Slave.
NOTE
The number of Master and Slave transitions cannot be obtained from versions of ExtremeWare prior
to version 6.1.6. For switches running earlier versions of ExtremeWare, the display defaults to "N/A."
NOTE
If some of the ESRP-enabled switches in an ESRP-enabled VLAN are not managed by EPICenter,
the ToMaster and ToSlave values for those switches will not be updated until the next device polling
interval.
• Active Ports—The number of active ports in this ESRP-enable VLAN.
• Tracked Ports—The number of tracked ports that are currently active.
• Tracked Routes—The number of tracked IP routes that are currently active.
• Tracked Pings—The number of tracked ping responders that are responding successfully.
NOTE
The number of Tracked Pings cannot be obtained from versions of ExtremeWare prior to version
6.1.6. For switches running earlier versions of ExtremeWare, the display defaults to zero.
