dot11DesiredSSID
Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11DesiredSSID
OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: read-write
Description: This attribute reflects the Service Set ID used in the DesiredSSID parameter of the most recent MLME_Scan.request. This value may be modified by an external management entity and used by the local SME to make decisions about the Scanning process.
What is dot11DesiredSSID?
Holds the SSID (network name), up to 32 octets, that the station used in its most recent scan request; an external management entity can set this to steer the station's scanning/association decisions. It is used, for example, to pre-configure which wireless network a managed client should look for and join.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11DesiredSSID
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11DesiredSSID.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9.1 s <value>
