Hi, I am playing with Dude and trying get signal strength, CCQ, TX rate etc. How you guys do it? Best way?
I saw two ways:
- using SNMP (any device with SNMP on), get OID with value, create function with code oid(“oid number”) and than use this function in data source, label, etc.
- using Mikrotik commands (Mikrotik device), create function and just run command returning needed value with ros_command(“:put [/interface wireless registration-table get [find where interface="wlan"] tx-ccq]”)
Q1: How to make universal fuction to get CCQ (for example for Mikrotik clients), as end of OID number is alway different / wlan interface name can be different (wlan1, wlan2 …) etc …
Just like add service CCQ probe and it just graph all wlans ccq in mikrotik without “hardcoding” OIDs for every device …
Q2: what is more computing power consuming SNMP query (snmp v2 read only) or run mikrotik command (ros_command)?
Q3: Get this walues on AP or from connected clients?
Any ideas or other ways how you work with this/get this values from devices?
Thnx
