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 AWAMP-MIB?

AWAMP-MIB is the enterprise MIB for Aruba Networks' AirWave wireless network management platform, used to monitor access points and wireless infrastructure across a WLAN deployment. It exposes AP identity and grouping data, Ethernet MAC/IP addressing, hardware manufacturer/model/firmware details, the SNMP community string used for polling, and integration objects for HP OpenView network management. Administrators rely on it to check hardware and software status of managed access points -- confirming AP firmware version, model/manufacturer identity, and IP reachability to detect misconfigured, outdated, or offline APs. It sits under the enterprises.airwave branch and works alongside standard IEEE 802.11 MIB objects rather than duplicating them. It is typically deployed in enterprise and campus WLAN environments where AirWave centrally manages multi-vendor access points. Engineers can download the AWAMP-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in AWAMP-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

  • Aruba Networks wireless access points
  • AirWave management platform
  • enterprise WLAN infrastructure

Monitoring Examples

An admin polls awampApName, awampAPIP, and awampAPEthMAC to inventory access points registered under a given awampGroupName, and checks awampAPFirmware to flag APs running outdated firmware that need an upgrade. The awampROCommString object reveals which read-only community string AirWave uses to poll each AP, useful for diagnosing failed SNMP polls. HP OpenView integration objects like awampHPOVHostName and awampHPOVIP1 let an admin confirm an AP's registration in a linked HPOV network management system.

What Can Be Monitored

  • AP identity and group membership
  • AP MAC and IP address
  • AP manufacturer/model
  • AP firmware version
  • SNMP community string used for polling
  • HP OpenView integration status
