✨ SNMP::...Aironet(3pm) ✨

okay bestie, get comfy 🫶 this is the perl manual page for SNMP::Info::Layer2::Aironet — the SNMP Interface to Cisco Aironet devices running IOS. It lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation pocket of your man pages and it is lowkey iconic. Let's go 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS

so this is the whole vibe right here — let SNMP::Info figure out which subclass you actually need, no cap:

# 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

It hands you an interface to the SNMP data that's chilling on newer Aironet devices running Cisco IOS. 💜

heads up bestie — there are two classes for Aironet devices and you do NOT wanna mix them up:

• SNMP::Info::Layer3::Aironet — for devices running Aironet software (the older ones, grandparent energy 👵)
• SNMP::Info::Layer2::Aironet — for devices running Cisco IOS software (the newer ones, main character energy 👑)

If you're chasing speed or you're debugging, you can call the subclass directly — but not after you've already determined a more specific class using the method above. don't do it, it's giving chaos 🙈

my $aironet = new SNMP::Info::Layer2::Aironet(...);

🧬 Inherited Classes

• SNMP::Info::Layer2
• SNMP::Info::EtherLike
• SNMP::Info::CiscoStats
• SNMP::Info::CiscoConfig

📚 Required MIBs

• CISCO-DOT11-ASSOCIATION-MIB
• CISCO-DOT11-IF-MIB
• CISCO-DOT11-SSID-SECURITY-MIB
• CISCO-POE-PD-MIB
• CISCO-VLAN-IFTABLE-RELATIONSHIP-MIB

🧬 Inherited Classes

MIBs required by the inherited classes listed above. yes you read that right, they need their MIBs too, it's a whole family thing 💖

🌟 GLOBALS

these are methods that return scalar value from SNMP. one value, one vibe, periodt ✨

• $aironet->vendor() — returns 'cisco' 🎀
• $aironet->description() — the system description. It also adds info from the e_descr() method over in SNMP::Info::Entity.

💫 Globals imported from SNMP::Info::Layer2

peep the docs in "GLOBALS" in SNMP::Info::Layer2 for all the details, bestie.

💫 Globals imported from SNMP::Info::EtherLike

same deal — go read "GLOBALS" in SNMP::Info::EtherLike.

🍓 TABLE METHODS

• $aironet->cd11_port() — returns radio interfaces.
• $aironet->cd11_mac() — returns client radio interface MAC addresses.
• $aironet->cd11_ssid() — returns radio interface ssid.
• $aironet->dot11_cur_tx_pwr_mw() — current transmit power, in milliwatts, of the radio interface.

🔥 Overrides

• $aironet->interfaces() — uses the i_description() field.
• $aironet->i_mac() — MAC address of the interface. note this is just the MAC of the port, not anything connected to it — nobody's attached, she's solo 💅
• $aironet->i_duplex() — crosses information from SNMP::Info::EtherLike to get duplex info for interfaces.
• $aironet->bp_index() — returns a reference to a hash of bridge port table entries that map back to the interface identifier (iid).
• $aironet->fw_mac() — returns a reference to a hash of forwarding table MAC Addresses.
• $aironet->fw_port() — returns a reference to a hash of forwarding table entries' port interface identifier (iid).
• $aironet->i_vlan() — returns a mapping between "ifIndex" and the PVID or default VLAN.
• $aironet->v_index() — returns VLAN IDs.
• $aironet->v_name() — returns VLAN names.
• $aironet->i_ssidlist() — returns a list of SSIDs associated with interfaces. This function is "MBSSID" aware, so when you're using "MBSSID" it can map SSIDs to the sub-interface they belong to. so thoughtful 🥹
• $aironet->i_ssidbcast() — with the same keys as i_ssidlist, it returns whether the given SSID is being broadcast.
• $aironet->i_ssidmac() — with the same keys as i_ssidlist, it returns the Basic service set identification (BSSID), a MAC address, that the AP is using for the SSID.
• $aironet ps1_status() — returns the PoE injector status based on "cpoePdSupportedPower" and "cpoePdSupportedPowerMode".

bestie that last one really is written as $aironet ps1_status() in the original — no ->, no arrow, just vibes 💀 not me fixing what I was told to keep exact.

🧚 Data Munging Callback Subroutines

• $aironet->munge_cd11_txrate() — converts units of half a megabit to a human readable string. she translates for you, a whole unpaid interpreter 🫶
