Description: This notification is generated by the Name Server when a new entry gets added to the Name Server database.
What is fcNameServerEntryAdd?
This notification is sent by the Fibre Channel Name Server whenever a new device entry is registered in its database. The notification includes the device's port name and port type to identify which entity was added. Storage network administrators monitor this trap to track device registration events and ensure proper fabric topology discovery.
Examples
Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' CISCO-NS-MIB::fcNameServerEntryAdd snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.293.1.4.0.3
Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):
snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public
Example snmptrapd log entry:
zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:59234->[192.168.30.10]:162]: DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (344548194) 39 days, 21:04:41.94 SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: CISCO-NS-MIB::fcNameServerEntryAdd
