Description: This trap indicates that an AP detected a management frame with a malformed information element. The declared length of the element is larger than the entire frame containing the element. This may be used to corrupt or crash wireless drivers.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' WLSX-TRAP-MIB::wlsxOverflowIEDetected
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.2.3.1.11.1.2.1185

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:55565->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
  DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (474738445) 54 days, 22:43:04.45
  SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = OID: WLSX-TRAP-MIB::wlsxOverflowIEDetected
