Graphing RSSI via SNMP what units??

RouterOS General
1

I’m using;

int wireless reg print oid

to get the rssi of a client via snmp. when i enter the value into my snmp software, i’m getting a crazy value… ie: rssi = 47 snmp retrives= 4294967226


i have no issues pulling and graphing the cpu and memory usage via SNMP for about 10 or so MT boxes i have…

EDIT; when i try the strength = oid for a different client the snmp retrived value is different but only two or the digits different from the above example.

thanks

Your software needs to know that the signal strength in dB is a negative integer.

yea.. the mode i have it in now just gives the raw data..you then give the software a formula or what have you and it formats the data then graphs it.


its not giving me a negitiv number though..an int but not -

tks

i’m trying this on 3 different clients, 3 different RBs and while there is consistatncy this is what i get:

-90 =4967219
-81 =4967210
