  • 1.  SNMP ESSID Info

    Posted May 20, 2019 03:58 AM

    In Aruba 6.5.4.3 controllers there is a wlsxWlanESSIDTable with info regarding Access Points and stations, but the wlanESSID for WlanESSIDEntry is not present. This table is indexed but I have not found any way to guess the SSID. Is there any way to guess the ESSID name corresponding to an index?

    you need to use -O0X and ensure the mibs are loaded correctly, example below (the string like ap214 is the essid not the ap name)

     

    root@kali-246:/home/mibs/6.5.4.7# snmpwalk -M. -mALL -v2c -c secret123 -O0X 192.1.1.1 wlsxWlanESSIDTable       
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumStations[STRING: ] = Gauge32: 0
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumStations[STRING: ap214] = Gauge32: 0
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumStations[STRING: ap215] = Gauge32: 0
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumStations[STRING: ap335] = Gauge32: 2
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumAccessPointsUp[STRING: ] = Gauge32: 0
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumAccessPointsUp[STRING: ap214] = Gauge32: 1
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumAccessPointsUp[STRING: ap215] = Gauge32: 1
WLSX-WLAN-MIB::wlanESSIDNumAccessPointsUp[STRING: ap335] = Gauge32: 1

    Thank you very much. I can see now how the information MIB is essential in order to decode the ESSID in this case
