Original document release
When HPE Onboard Administrator (OA) has a VLAN enabled and the VLAN is set to a non-default VLAN ID value (the default value is 1,) the SNMP traps produced by the OA module may have their "agent-addr" field set to "0.0.0.0, " instead of a valid value.
Scope
Any HP c-Class BladeSystem running HPE Onboard Administrator Firmware Version 4.50 (or earlier).
Resolution
Onboard Administrator firmware version 4.60 corrects this issue and is available at the following URL:
http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=1844083&swItemId=MTX_7485a49ac12f4643af115047c0&swEnvOid=54
As an interim workaround, the value can be safely ignored, because while the trap may be marked as invalid, the RFC1908 states the following regarding SNMPv1 <-> SNMPv2 translation:
"The agent-addr field is set with the appropriate address of the sending SNMP entity, which is the IP address if the sending entity of the trap goes out over UDP; otherwise the agent-addr field is set to address 0.0.0.0."
