SCOM Systems randomly send snmp packets thru wrong interface
Hello,
My SCOM environment is composed by 1 RMS, 2 MS monitoring 870 network devices (SNMP), and 1 MS monitoring 40 windows servers (Agent). All operating systems are Windows 2008 R2.
I configured a rule to process the cisco trap Authentication, that is send by the switches when, for example, an unauthorized device tries to read snmp counters data.
All SCOM servers are multinic with a configuration similar to:
Interface 1 (VLAN 10)
IP: 10.10.10.10
Mask: 255.255.224.0
DNS: 10.10.10.100
Interface 2 (VLAN 5)
IP: 10.5.0.5
Mask: 255.255.0.0
Recently I had do add a new interface to monitor some snmp devices connected to a different network:
Interface 3 (VLAN 100)
IP: 193.138.100.150
Mask: 255.255.255.128
Gateway: 193.138.100.254
Since I enabled interface 3, the switches connected to VLAN 5 started to randomly generate authentication traps saying that the VLAN 100 IP address of the management server that manages them is trying to communicate but is not authorized
My questions is:
1-If the system has one interface connected directly to a network, why some times the snmp packets are sent thru other interface.
This is a critical problem for the network team because it causes a lot of false “network device is down ” alerts and the alert generation is often suspended because it exceeds 50 alerts.
I tried strong host configuration, flush dns, interface binding, and static routes, without success… the problem remains.
Any help is appreciated

You can send it to blrforum at microsoft .com if you will.

Hello Ketan,
I allready sent the route print to blrforum.

Using an IP calculator, we could not locate an IP address in the range of which the server are using. As a result these adapters would use the default gateway (by default) as this is the least cost. Perhaps the route print output was from the
wrong server?
Can you please verify which server this output was taken from?
We could not find the IP addresses listed in the thread in any of the route print output.Ketan Thakkar | Microsoft Online Community Support
