dot11AuthenticateFailStation

Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11AuthenticateFailStation

OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.20

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: MacAddress

Access: read-only

Description: This attribute holds the MAC address from the Address 1 field of the most recently transmitted failed Authentication frame. If no failed Authentication frame has been transmitted, the value of this attribute shall be 0.

What is dot11AuthenticateFailStation?

Holds the MAC address from the most recently transmitted failed Authentication frame, or all zeros if none has failed yet. Security monitoring reads this alongside the dot11AuthenticateFail trap to identify exactly which client's authentication attempt was rejected.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.20
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11AuthenticateFailStation

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.20.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11AuthenticateFailStation.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot11AuthenticateFailStation.1
