SNMP::Info::Layer3::Aironet(3) Perl5 Interface to Cisco Aironet Wireless

SYNOPSIS


# Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
my $aironet = new SNMP::Info(
AutoSpecify => 1,
Debug => 1,
DestHost => 'myswitch',
Community => 'public',
Version => 2
)
or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";
my $class = $aironet->class();
print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

DESCRIPTION

SNMP::Info subclass to provide access to SNMP data for an Aironet device running Aironet software, not cisco IOS.

Note there are two classes for Aironet devices :

SNMP::Info::Layer3::Aironet
This class is for devices running Aironet software (older)
SNMP::Info::Layer2::Aironet
This class is for devices running Cisco IOS software (newer)

For speed or debugging purposes you can call the subclass directly, but not after determining a more specific class using the method above.

 my $aironet = new SNMP::Info::Layer3::Aironet(...);

Inherited Classes

SNMP::Info::Layer3

Required MIBs

AWCVX-MIB
IEEE802dot11-MIB

These MIBs are now included in the v2.tar.gz archive available from ftp.cisco.com. Make sure you have a current version.

GLOBALS

These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP
$aironet->awc_duplex()
Gives the admin duplex setting for the Ethernet Port.

"awcEtherDuplex.0"

$aironet->mac()
Gives the MAC Address of the wireless side

"dot11StationID.2"

$aironet->os()
'aironet'
$aironet->os_ver
Tries to cull the version from the description field.
$aironet->vendor()
Returns 'cisco'.

See documentation in ``GLOBALS'' in SNMP::Info::Layer3 for details.

TABLE METHODS

These are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash.

Overrides

$aironet->bp_index()
Takes the bp_index() value from SNMP::Info::Bridge and overrides the wireless port to be assigned to the transparent bridge port (port 0)
$aironet->fw_mac()
Adds static table entries from bs_mac() to port 0 so that wireless MAC addresses will be reported. Forwarding table entries for port 0 are removed.
$aironet->fw_port()
Adds the static table port mappings to the forwarding table port mappings by adding bs_port() to fw_port()
$aironet->i_duplex()
Adds the value of awc_duplex() to each Ethernet port seen.
$aironet->i_mac()
Overrides the values for i_mac with the value from awc_mac() if they are set.
$aironet->i_ignore()
Ignores ports that are of type ``rptr'' and ``lo''.

Aironet specific items

$aironet->awc_default_mac()
Gives the default MAC address of each interface.

"awcIfDefaultPhyAddress"

$aironet->awc_mac()
Gives the actual MAC address of each interface.

"awcIfPhyAddress"

$aironet->awc_ip()
Gives the IP Address assigned to each interface.

"awcIfIpAddress"

$aironet->awc_netmask()
Gives the NetMask for each interface.

"awcIfIpNetMask"

$aironet->awc_msdu()
"awcIfMSDUMaxLength"
