SNMP events from the same node showing different Source values in Event Management

Hi all,

We are currently testing SNMP trap integration in **ServiceNow Event Management for a Cisco MDS switch. While testing, we observed that events from the same node (same IP address/device) are being received with different Source values.

Examples of Source values we are seeing for events coming from the same device:

  • SNMPv2 Generic Trap
  • Trap From Enterprise 9
  • iso.org.dod.internet.experimental.fcmgmt.0.6

Even though the node/IP address is the same, the Source field varies across the events.

Configuration / Steps performed

  • Created SNMPv2 credentials in ServiceNow.
  • Configured SNMP Trap listener using the MID Server.

Observation

For the same node, multiple events are generated but the Source field differs depending on the trap received.
