Appendix A1:SNMP Interface
The system sends traps to an SNMP management station when a Sensor generates an event. You can view a trap sent
from the system using SNMP manager software such as HP Open View or MG Soft MIB (Management Information
Base) browser. The SNMP manager software allows you to view a detailed description of the trap and thereby the
functioning of your wireless network. Perform the following steps from the SNMP management station to receive
traps from the system and to dig deeper into the Sensors.
1. Configure the system to specify the IP address, community string, and the SNMP version of the SNMP
management station. This can be done from the Administration->Local tab->ESM Integration->SNMP screen
of the Console.
2. Compile the MIB file and enable the SNMP management station to receive traps. The system currently
generates traps for all the events. The format of the trap is: SpectraGuard Event.
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) assigned Private Enterprise Number for AirTight® Networks, Inc.
is 16901.
SNMP trap contains following variable bindings:
1. eventShortText is the short text identifying the type of an event. For example, “Rogue AP active”
2. deviceMAC*, deviceType* - Information of the device(s) participating in the corresponding SpectraGuard
event
deviceMAC* object is the MAC address of participating device(s). For example, 00:11:95:1E:A7:56
deviceType* object is the type of participating device. For example, Access Point, Client, Sensor. If a
SpectraGuard event contains more than three participating devices, then deviceType and
deviceMAC of only first three devices is sent out in the SpectraGuardEvent notification.
3. eventID is the unique sequence number which identifies specific instance of an event. This sequence number
is always auto-incremented by one for every newly event raised.
4. eventMajorType represents the top level category of an event. For example, security, system, performance
5. eventIntermediateType is the sub-category within eventMajorType
6. eventMinorType is the actual identifier of the event type
7. eventSeverityLevel is the configured Severity level of the SpectraGuard event. For example: high, medium,
and low.
