Error description
ITNM 3.8 FP5 Linux The current issue is that the device has wrong information: It seems that when the discovery runs the first time, the default network is /24 for all the devices.... and after this netmask is never updated according to the SNMP information recovered when ITNM build the devices and its interfaces. First the default value of /24 is misleading. The default should be /32 (= scope of a single host).... and secondly this netmask (/32) should be updated according to the SNMP info.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * ITNM 3.8 FP6, 3.9 FP2 and earlier versions. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * ITNM was attributing the wrong subnet (mask) for a chassis * * entity. It was being given a /24 instead of /21 mask. This * * was the result of an incorrect inferrence. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Upgrade to ITNM 3.8 FP7 or 3.9 FP3 * * fix pack | 3.9.0-ITNMIP-FP0003 * * fix pack | 3.8.0-ITNMIP-FP0007 * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
ITNM will now look at the interface that has the ip address that ITNM found the device by (m_UniqueAddress) and use it's subnet config to add to the chassis.
