Issue/Introduction

We have installed Infrastructure agent on Windows server and somehow SytemEDGE is not working. We see the following errors in the IntroscopeAgent.log file:

Resolution

Please follow below steps to try to resolve this problem:

1. Open IntroscopeAgent.profile file

2. Locate below properties and make sure they look as below (make sure the network is not blocking these ports):
snmpcollector.localhost.port=1791
snmpcollector.traps.port=1792

3. Reinstall the Infrastructure agent and check if the problem persists

 

If the problem persists, please contact Broadcom Support.
