πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

SNMP::Info::Layer2::Aerohive β€” literally the SNMP Interface to Aerohive / Extreme access points, bestie. That's the whole vibe. πŸ¦‹

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's how you let the module figure out which subclass you actually need, so you don't have to do detective work yourself:

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

 my $class = $aerohive->class();
 print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

periodt. that's it, that's the ritual. πŸ’…


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

It gives you abstraction to the configuration info you can grab from an Aerohive / Extreme wireless access point through SNMP. fr fr, that's the gig. ✨

🧚 Inherited Classes

  • SNMP::Info::Layer2

πŸŽ€ Required MIBs

  • AH-SYSTEM-MIB
  • AH-INTERFACE-MIB

🌈 Inherited MIBs

See "Required MIBs" in SNMP::Info::Layer2 for its MIB requirements. go look, i'll wait. πŸ’–


πŸ’œ GLOBALS πŸ’œ

These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP. little single-value girlypops.

  • $aerohive->vendor() β€” Returns 'aerohive'.
  • $aerohive->os() β€” Returns 'hiveos', also for devices running IQ Engine code.
  • $aerohive->serial() β€” Returns the serial number extracted from "ahSystemSerial" or defer to imported modules.
  • $aerohive->os_ver() β€” Returns the OS version extracted from "ahFirmwareVersion" or "sysDescr" as fallback.
  • $aerohive->mac() β€” Returns the base mac address of the aerohive unit from an undocumented snmp oid. if this oid is not available it will walk all interfaces and return the lowest numbered mac address. (undocumented oid behavior? lowkey giving "trust me bro" but it's in the source so πŸ’€)
  • $aerohive->model() β€” Returns "ahDeviceMode", if that's not available the model is extracted from "sysDescr".

πŸ”₯ Overrides

  • $aerohive->layers() β€” Returns 00000111. Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionality through proprietary MIBs. both layers, she's doing the most, we love her. πŸ‘‘

πŸ“ TABLE METHODS πŸ“

These are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash. hash girlies rise up. πŸ’…

  • $aerohive->i_ssidlist() β€” Returns reference to hash. SSID's recognized by the radio interface.
  • $aerohive->i_ssidmac() β€” With the same keys as i_ssidlist, returns the Basic service set identification (BSSID), MAC address, the AP is using for the SSID.
  • $aerohive->i_80211channel() β€” Returns reference to hash. Current operating frequency channel of the radio interface.

"ahRadioChannel"

  • $aerohive->dot11_cur_tx_pwr_mw() β€” Returns reference to hash. Current transmit power, in milliwatts, of the radio interface.

"ahRadioTxPower"

  • $aerohive->cd11_port() β€” Returns radio interfaces.
  • $aerohive->cd11_mac() β€” Returns client radio interface MAC addresses.

🌟 Overrides

  • $aerohive->interfaces() β€” Only return interfaces which have an entry in ahIfName as well. This halts the creation of ghost interfaces. no ghosting allowed on this network bestie πŸ‘»πŸš«
  • $aerohive->bp_index() β€” Simulates bridge MIB by returning reference to a hash mapping i_index() to the interface iid.
  • $aerohive->qb_fw_port() β€” Returns reference to hash of forwarding table entries port interface identifier (iid).
  • $aerohive->qb_fw_mac() β€” Returns reference to hash of forwarding table MAC Addresses.

"ahClientMac"

  • $aerohive->qb_fw_vlan() β€” Returns reference to hash of forwarding table entries VLAN ID.

"ahClientVLAN"

πŸ¦‹ Arp Cache Table Augmentation πŸ¦‹

The AP has knowledge of MAC->IP mappings for wireless clients. Augmenting the arp cache data with these MAC->IP mappings enables visibility for stations that only communicate locally. serving looks for the local-only girlies πŸ’–

  • $aerohive->at_paddr() β€” "ahClientMac"
  • $aerohive->at_netaddr() β€” "ahClientIP"
