Description: Alvarion wireless device MIB covering WDS, used to manage Wireless Distribution System bridge links and mesh topology.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is ALVARION-DEVICE-WDS-MIB?

ALVARION-DEVICE-WDS-MIB is a vendor MIB from Alvarion for wireless broadband devices supporting WDS (Wireless Distribution System), used to configure and monitor wireless bridge/mesh links between access points. It exposes tables for WDS group and radio information, including per-radio acknowledgment distance and QoS settings, and per-group naming and indexing. Its monitoring role centers on the operational status of wireless bridge links - verifying that WDS radio parameters like ack distance (tuned for link range) and QoS settings are correctly applied, and that groups are properly formed, which affects link range and throughput reliability rather than exposing classic hardware sensors like temperature. It is a self-contained vendor MIB without an apparent dependency on other standard MIBs in the provided data. It's typically deployed on Alvarion wireless broadband access points forming point-to-point or point-to-multipoint wireless bridge/mesh topologies, and administrators can download the ALVARION-DEVICE-WDS-MIB file to load it into their network management platform.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ALVARION-DEVICE-WDS-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • Alvarion wireless broadband access points (WDS bridge/mesh deployments)

Monitoring Examples

An admin polls coDeviceWDSRadioTable/coDeviceWDSRadioEntry by coDevWDSRadioIndex to check coDevWDSRadioAckDistance, ensuring it matches the actual physical distance of a long-range WDS bridge link - a mismatch here can cause dropped frames or poor throughput. coDeviceWDSGroupTable/coDeviceWDSGroupEntry entries, identified by coDevWDSGroupIndex and coDevWDSGroupName, let an admin confirm which radios are grouped into a given WDS mesh, and coDevWDSRadioQoS values reveal whether traffic prioritization is properly configured across the bridge.

What Can Be Monitored

  • WDS radio ack distance
  • WDS radio QoS setting
  • WDS group membership/naming
  • number of WDS groups configured

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using coDevWDSLinkStsPktsTxRate1 OID:

Select an Alvarion (Cambium) wireless broadband access points/base station (legacy) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type coDevWDSLinkStsPktsTxRate1 into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of frames transmitted at 1 Mbit/s. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
