Description: Manages Aruba wireless remote site survivability configuration and local switching status for branch deployments.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is WLSX-RS-MIB?

This is part of Aruba Networks' WLSX MIB family, covering "Remote Site" survivability - how a branch-office wireless deployment behaves when connectivity to the central Aruba controller is lost. Per its description it exposes remote user and node state information relevant to local switching and failover behavior at the branch. Its monitoring value is software status: whether a remote site has failed over into local-switching survivability mode due to loss of contact with the central controller, and whether user sessions remain active locally during that outage, though no concrete object names are available in this sample. It is one module within Aruba's broader WLSX MIB suite, working alongside other WLSX-*-MIB modules that manage APs and controllers. It is deployed in Aruba branch/remote-office wireless installations where local controllers or APs must operate autonomously during WAN outages, and WLSX-RS-MIB SNMP monitoring is how operators confirm survivability mode activated correctly.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WLSX-RS-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

Aruba wireless controllers/branch remote APs

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects are available for this module, so rather than invent specific object names, a realistic scenario based on its description would poll remote user/node state to detect when a branch site has transitioned into local-switching survivability mode following loss of contact with the central Aruba controller, and to confirm user sessions remained active locally during that outage.

What Can Be Monitored

remote site survivability/failover status
local switching mode state
remote user/node session state

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using remotePortTxPackets OID:

Select an Aruba wireless controllers/branch remote APs (remote-site survivability/local-switching failover status) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type remotePortTxPackets into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the transmitted frames. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
