ntWlanDot11ClosedSystem

Module: NORTEL-WLAN-AP-MIB

OID (symbolic): NORTEL-WLAN-AP-MIB::ntWlanDot11ClosedSystem

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.11.1.7.4.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TruthValue

Access: read-write

Description: This attribute determines whether the radio operates as a closed system. When configured as a closed system, the SSID is not included when broadcasting periodic beacon frames.

What is ntWlanDot11ClosedSystem?

Enables or disables closed-system (hidden SSID) mode, where the AP stops broadcasting its network name in beacons. Admins toggle this as a very mild access-hardening measure, understanding it doesn't meaningfully improve security since the SSID is still visible in association frames.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.11.1.7.4.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NORTEL-WLAN-AP-MIB::ntWlanDot11ClosedSystem

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.11.1.7.4.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NORTEL-WLAN-AP-MIB::ntWlanDot11ClosedSystem.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.11.1.7.4.1.1.6.1 s <value>
