Network Protocol Manager for EIGRP diagnoses root-cause problems and detects (computes) events from status updates acquired in the following ways:

  • By subscribing to EIGRP-relevant status updates from IP Availability Manager

  • By using CLI polling to gather status information from the EIGRP-enabled devices

    Network Protocol Manager for EIGRP correlates these events to diagnose root-cause problems.

    Note:

    Events used as symptoms to diagnose a root-cause problem can also be perceived as impacts that are caused by the problem.

    The Global Manager imports:

  • All problems that are diagnosed by Network Protocol Manager for EIGRP.

  • Key events that are detected by Network Protocol Manager for EIGRP.

    The root-cause problem notifications (one problem per notification) and the event notifications (one event per notification) are displayed in the Global Console.
