Wired Ethernet Switches
Any standalone Ethernet access switch that supports the standard SNMP MIB-II objects for wired switches can
be monitored by AirWave.
AirWave will collect the uptime and name/location/contact information for switches (or any device that supports
SNMP). For port information, AirWave relies on the IF-MIB to collect byte counts.
MAC addresses are collected from the BRIDGE MIB and RFC1213 MIB (ARP table) in order to determine AP
port assignments and identify possible rogue devices on the network.
Some switches have additional support in AirWave:
Cisco
Automated discovery through SNMP
Model & software version identification
CDP neighbor information and extended port error stats
3750 stack information
Juniper
Automated discovery through SNMP
Model & software version identification
Rogue AP detection is supported using the Q-BRIDGE MIB
NOTE: Motorola 5.x software is not supported by AirWave.
