Monitoring CPPM and Controller licenses using SNMP

  • 1.  Monitoring CPPM and Controller licenses using SNMP

    Posted Jul 04, 2018 09:09 AM

    Hi all,

    i am trying to monitor our CPPM and Aruba Controller using SNMP either via Powershell or PRTG. Do you know if there is any known OID that indicates the license usage or any other way to monitor the licenses?

     

    Thanks in advance for your help

    You can walk the controller for the 'licenseKey' OID (.1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.2.2.1.1.1.8.1.2)

     

     

    I ran the cmd through AirWave's AMPCLI -> Enter Commands menu

    (link to AMP-TIP that walks through the SNMP portion of enter cmds)

    $ sw2 13 licenseKey

    WLSX-SWITCH-MIB::licenseKey.1 = STRING: AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAA-AAA
    WLSX-SWITCH-MIB::licenseKey.2 = STRING: BBBBBBBB-BBBBBBBB-BBBBBBBB-BBBBBBBB-BBBBBBBB-BBB

    Checked with ClearPass team, they don't expose the license keys through SNMP.  It'd be a feature request to have a ClearPass OID for license keys.

    Hi all,

     

    thanks for your answers. There might some misunderstanding. I am not trying to retrieve the license key. Rather i would like to see the following data from cppm > administration > server manager > licensing:

    Policy Manager: Total Count and Used Count
    Guest: Total Count and Used Count

    Clearpass Enterprise: Total Count and Used Count

     

    In advance to starting this, i knew it was going to be a hard task to realize but unfortunately i turned out to be even more difficult.

     

    I really appreciate your help...
