dot11PrivacyInvoked
Module: IEEE802dot11-MIB
OID (symbolic): IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11PrivacyInvoked
OID (numeric): 1.2.840.10036.1.5.1.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-write
Description: When this attribute is TRUE, it shall indicate that some level of security is invoked for transmitting frames of type Data. For WEP-only clients, the security mechanism used is WEP. For RSNA-capable clients, an additional variable dot11RSNAEnabled indicates whether RSNA is enabled. If dot11RSNAEnabled is FALSE or the MIB variable does not exist, the security mechanism invoked is WEP; if dot11RSNAEnabled is TRUE, RSNA security mechanisms invoked are configured in the dot11RSNAConfigTable. The default value of this attribute shall be FALSE.
What is dot11PrivacyInvoked?
A read-write flag, default FALSE; when TRUE, some level of security (WEP, or RSNA if dot11RSNAEnabled is also TRUE) is applied to transmitted Data frames. Admins set this to TRUE as the master switch that turns on link-layer encryption on a legacy or RSNA-capable radio.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.5.1.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11PrivacyInvoked
Get a specific instance (index 1):
