netdisco
Aruba access points do not show SSID or client info
I am raising this issue as recommended after discussion on the sourceforge email list. I can assist with any additional info or troubleshooting that may be needed.
Expected Behavior
Aruba IAP access points that are not managed by a standalone controller (either in cluster or standalone mode), should show SSID and client info. This info is available via SNMP.
Current Behavior
These devices are correctly detected as wireless access points in Netdisco, but we don't see the SSID or client info. The same AP's if managed by a standalone Aruba mobility controller, do show the correct info.
Possible Solution
Using the Aruba MIB reference guide, query the SSID and client info from the AP's directly. https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/Instant_423_WebHelp/Content/Aruba%20Instant%20MIB%20Reference%20Guide.pdf
Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)
For example, discover an Aruba IAP and you will see that it does not show any client or SSID info.
Your Device
- Vendor: Aruba
- Device Model: All IAP models (example IAP-315, IAP-515 etc etc)
- Operating System Version: AOS8 and AOS10, all revisions.
- Snmpwalk output of .1.3.6.1.2.1.1:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 = STRING: ArubaOS (MODEL: 515), Version 8.10.0.9-8.10.0.9 LSR .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 = OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.1.2.107 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 = 2160837100 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 = STRING: .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 = STRING: AP46228KOS0028 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0 = STRING: Redacted-Location .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.7.0 = INTEGER: 72

- Netdisco version (if used): 2.81.3
- Issue observed on all versions so far
Hi @sir-bogbrush many thanks for the report! Are you able to run a native snmpwalk as below? Netdisco cannot read the Paessler format, sorry.
snmpwalk -v 2c -c public -ObentU 172.16.25.30 .1
(or try snmpbulkwalk which might be faster)
Apologies, I should have foreseen that. I have updated the original attachment to show the output of your snmpwalk command.
