Description: Manages WLAN security settings including 802.1X, WPA, and encryption on Cisco LWAPP wireless controllers.

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 CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-MIB?

CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-MIB is a Cisco enterprise MIB implemented on wireless LAN controllers that terminate the Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) tunnel from Cisco lightweight access points, focused specifically on WLAN security configuration such as CCKM, WPA/WPA2, PSK, and fast-transition (FT) settings per wireless ESS (Extended Service Set). It exposes per-ESS security configuration objects covering encryption type, key management mode, pre-shared key format, and CCKM/WPA support flags. Administrators use it to monitor and verify the software-level security configuration state of each wireless network, confirming that the intended encryption (WPA1/WPA2) and key management mode are actively applied, and to receive notifications of security-related events via ciscoLwappWlanSecurityMIBNotifs. It depends on the broader Cisco LWAPP MIB family (controller/AP topology) since security settings are indexed per WLAN ESS defined elsewhere in that architecture. It is deployed on Cisco wireless LAN controllers managing fleets of lightweight access points in enterprise and campus WiFi deployments. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-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

  • Cisco wireless LAN controller (LWAPP-based)

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll cLWSecDot11EssCckmTable/cLWSecDot11EssCckmEntry to check cLWSecDot11EssCckmWpa2Security and cLWSecDot11EssCckmWpa2EncType per ESS, confirming that WPA2 with the expected encryption cipher is enforced rather than a weaker or misconfigured setting. cLWSecDot11EssPskFmt and cLWSecDot11EssPsk let an admin verify the pre-shared key format configured for a given WLAN, while cLWSecDot11EssFtEnable indicates whether 802.11r fast transition is enabled, useful when troubleshooting roaming or authentication delays reported by wireless clients.

What Can Be Monitored

  • per-WLAN WPA/WPA2 encryption type
  • CCKM support status
  • pre-shared key configuration
  • key management mode
  • fast-transition (802.11r) status
