Cisco 2811 wireless card signal monitoring

Is it possible to create a view on the web console to monitor the signal of the wireless cards in a cisco 2811? I've fumbled around and can't seem to find out how.

Thanks,

Dave

Thank Yann.

Looks like I found the issue. The OS we currently are running on the router supports the card but not the MIB. So we have to upgrade the OS on every router, then we should be good to go.

Thanks,

Dave

I am configuring a number of cisco 2811 routers with hwic-3g-gsm cards

I've been asked to find out a way to get the radio signal status/levels to show in web console

Has anyone else achieved this & if so, would you care to share?

Thanks,

Dave

What version are you on? Have you tried creating a UnDP, see here

DaveAz

v9.5

We did try...may have the incorrect MIB. Have to do more looking.

Thanks!

Does the Wireless card have it own Admin IP and configuration or is it just considered a part of the chassis?

DaveAz

I believe it's seperate...I'll check and get back...Sorry, I'm a noob..

bshopp

No worries, if seperate and you are running NPM 9.5 and it supports the 802.11 MIB, you should add it to Orion

DaveAz

But it's not 802.11...I have 1 router in every state, with a circuit to each. These cards are cellular in each router to back-up the circuit in the event it drops. The MIB I used before must have been the one you spoke of, as all I could see then was my local wireless host controllers.

Thanks,

Dave

Ah ok, you may still want to do a MIB Walk of the node and see if you can get the data you are looking for and if so, create a UnDP

DaveAz

Whew!...MIB walked the node, and am at a loss. Not sure what I'm looking at/for. Anyone have an idea/ballpark what MIB name/info to look out for? Under wireless, I see access point, client type info. But this is completely different from that. This is a cellular card talking to a cell tower, backing up out T1 circuit if/when it goes down.

Thanks for everyones help,

Dave

Hi Dave,

I reviewed the specs of the card and it seems to support the CISCO-WAN-3G-MIB:

Card Specs:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5949/ps7272/product_data_sheet0900aecd80600f41.html

MIB Description:

http://www.oidview.com/mibs/9/CISCO-WAN-3G-MIB.html

Try a mib walk on the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.661 and see if it is supported.

Cisco TAC should have a definite answer about which OIDs to monitor if this MIB does not work.

HTH,

Yann
