dot11gProtectionMode

Module: HIPATH-WIRELESS-DOT11-EXTNS-MIB

OID (symbolic): HIPATH-WIRELESS-DOT11-EXTNS-MIB::dot11gProtectionMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4329.15.3.1.1.5.1.3

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Configures whether and when to use Protection Mode for the 802.11g transmissions. Protection Mode helps reduce collisions with legacy 802.11b stations at the expense of additional overhead. None specifies that no protection is to be used. Auto specifies that radio will enable protection mode when it detects an 802.11b station. Always specifies that protection mode is always enabled.

What is dot11gProtectionMode?

Controls when 802.11g Protection Mode is used to avoid collisions with legacy 802.11b clients: none disables it, auto enables it only when an 11b station is detected, and always keeps it on at all times (at the cost of extra overhead).

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4329.15.3.1.1.5.1.3
