cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount

Module: CISCO-WDS-INFO-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-WDS-INFO-MIB::cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.509.1.5.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: This object specifies the number of AAA authentication attempts (such as LEAP) made by WDS to authenticate Access Points and Mobile Nodes. Discontinuities in the value of this counter can occur at re-initialization of the WDS.

What is cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount?

This read-only Counter32 counts the number of AAA authentication attempts, such as LEAP, the WDS has made to authenticate Access Points and Mobile Nodes, with discontinuities possible at WDS re-initialization. An admin monitors this as the overall volume of authentication activity the WDS is handling. For example, an admin comparing cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount against cwdsiAaaAuthSuccessCount and cwdsiAaaAuthFailureCount gets an overall picture of authentication health on the WDS.

Start monitoring Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the CISCO-WDS-INFO-MIB::cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller 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 cwdsiAaaAuthAttemptCount into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. This object specifies the number of AAA authentication attempts (such as LEAP) made by WDS to authenticate Access Points and Mobile Nodes. 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.
