Notification Format

For each alarm and event notification, the following information is provided (see Table 13-1).

Table 13-1 Trap Notification Format
Field	NCS Message
MIB Name	The MIB Name is the name of the notification as defined in the management information base (MIB). In some cases, if the event is specific only to the NMS, this field is not relevant. You can define multiple events in NCS from the same trap based on the values of the variables present in the trap. In such cases, multiple subentries appear with the same MIB Name. In addition, this field displays the value of the variable that caused NCS to generate this event.
Alarm Condition	This filed displays the condition for which the trap was generated.
NCS Message	The NCS Message is a text string that reflects the message displayed in the NCS alarm or event browser associated with this event. Numbers such as "{0}" reflect internal NCS variables that typically are retrieved from variables in the trap. However, the order of the variables as they appear in the trap cannot be derived from the numbers.
Symptoms	This field displays the symptoms associated with this event.
Severity	This field displays the severity assigned to this event in NCS.
Category	This field displays the category of the trap.
Probable Causes	This field lists the probable causes of the notification.
Recommended Actions	This field lists any actions recommended for the administrator managing the wireless network.

Alarm Condition	NA
NCS Message	Console login successful or failed.
Symptoms	The console port provides the ability for the customer to change the user name and password to recover the stranded outdoor access point. To prevent any unauthorized user access to the access point, NCS sends an alarm when someone tries to log in. This alarm is required to provide protection because the access point is physically vulnerable being located outdoors.

Alarm Condition	NA
NCS Message	Parent AP being excluded by child AP.
Symptoms	When a child fails authentication at the controller after a fixed number of attempts, the child can exclude that parent. The child remembers the excluded parent so that when it joins the network, it sends the trap which contains the excluded parent MAC address and the duration of the exclusion period.
Severity	Informational
Category	Mesh
Probable Causes	A child marked a parent for exclusion.
Recommended Actions	None.

CISCO_LWAPP_MESH_EXCESSIVE_PARENT_CHANGE
