I've encountered a problem on a link - this is a fairly tech savvy guy who
is helping me out - he's a programmer and knows a little bit about
networking. His connection keeps failing, maybe once a day or so for a few
minutes. He set up a packet sniffer on the same switch as the radio to see
if he could find out the cause.

He just emailed me the following...

"I did notice something  interesting.  Here  is a packet broadcast when
connectivity stopped -

17:18:50.947026 12.109.222.11.snmptrap > 255.255.255.255.snmptrap:
Trap(39)  E:410.1.1 12.109.222.11 enterpriseSpecific[specific-trap(11)!=0]
3297300 E:=[|snmp]

Then when this packet was broadcast 18 minutes later, the connection
started again -

17:39:59.753430 12.109.222.11.snmptrap > 255.255.255.255.snmptrap:
Trap(39)  E:410.1.1 12.109.222.11 enterpriseSpecific[specific-trap(10)!=0]
3424200 E:=[|snmp]

Note the  different trap numbers - 10 on the first one, and 11 on the
second one, and they are labeled as enterpriseSpecific."

Does anyone know what is going on here? Why does the radio keep
disconnecting, and how is it related to this snmp trap? The radio has the IP
12.109.222.11 - It appears to be sending out a broadcast packet?

Can someone at smartBridges tell me what specific-trap(10) and
specific-trap(11) means?

I could change the radio to a private IP address, I could swap out the
radio, I could probably fix the problem, but I'd like to understand what's
going on. Anyone have any idea?

Thanks,
Roger
