Access Points
Description
The module is designed in order to discover of the Access Points Network Devices directly managed by Wireless Controllers and create relationships between Wireless Controller and Access Points.
Supported vendors
Currently Aruba, Cisco System, Hewlett-Packard, Extreme/Siemens, Huawei Wireless Controllers are supported.
Triggers
Pattern | Trigger Node | Attribute | Condition | Argument |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Aruba_AP | NetworkDevice | vendor and type | = = | 'Aruba Networks' 'Wireless LAN Controller' |
Cisco_AP | NetworkDevice | vendor and type | = = | 'Cisco Systems' 'Wireless LAN Controller' |
Extreme_AP | NetworkDevice | vendor and type | = = | 'Extreme' or 'Siemens' 'Wireless LAN Controller' |
HP_AP | NetworkDevice | vendor and type | = = | 'Hewlett-Packard' 'Wireless LAN Controller' |
Huawei_AP | NetworkDevice | vendor and type | = = | 'Huawei' 'Switch' |
Product Architecture
Pattern triggers on Wireless Controller. Builds the BMC Discovery Network Devices (Access
Points connected to Wireless Controller) based on additional details obtained via SNMP:
For Aruba AP:
- wlsxWlanAPTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.2.2.1.5.2.1.4) - SNMP table used to create NetworkDevice, IPAddress
- wlsxRemoteWiredPortTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.2.2.1.16.1.1.1) - SNMP table used to create NetworkInterface
- wlsxAPConfigTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.2.2.1.5.1.2.1) - SNMP table used to create IPAddress, Subnet
For Cisco AP:
- bsnAPTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.2.1) - SNMP table used to create NetworkDevice, IPAddress, Subnet
- cLApEthernetIfTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.513.1.2.2) - SNMP table used to create NetworkInterface
For Extreme / Siemens AP:
- apTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.4329.15.3.5.1.2) - SNMP table used to create NetworkDevice, MAC and IP addresses, Subnet
- ipAddrTable (1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20) - SNMP table used to get NetMask
For HP AP:
- coDeviceDiscoveryTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.8744.5.23.1.2.1) - SNMP table used to create Access Point NetworkDevice;
- coDeviceInfoTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.8744.5.23.1.3.1) - SNMP table used to obtain additional attributes for NetworkDevice (model, firmware_version and hardware_revision);
- coDeviceIfStatusTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.8744.5.24.1.1.1) - SNMP table used to create NetworkInterface, MAC and IP addresses
For Huawei AP:
- hwWlanIDIndexedApTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.139.13.3.10) - SNMP table used to create Access Point NetworkDevice;
- hwWlanApWiredPortTable (1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.139.13.3.4) - SNMP table used to get Access Points Port parameters (Speed, Duplex, Negitiation)
Model
Access Point devices created with the following attributes and relationships:
For Aruba Access Points Discovery creates Admin Collection nodes to model Access Point Group.
Limitations
Pattern creates IPAddress and Subnet nodes for IPv4 adderess only.
