Description: When this object is set to TRUE, this shall indicate that RSNA preauthentication is enabled on this entity. This object requires that dot11RSNAEnabled also be set to TRUE.

What is dot11RSNAPreAuthenticationEnabled?

This OID enables or disables a WiFi security feature that pre-authenticates devices before they formally connect. It speeds up WiFi roaming for users moving between access points. A WiFi administrator would enable this on networks with multiple access points to provide seamless handoff for mobile devices.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.5.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11RSNAPreAuthenticationEnabled

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.5.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11RSNAPreAuthenticationEnabled.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.1.5.1.8.1 s <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> dot11RSNAPreAuthenticationEnabled.1
