Why do identical pieces of hardware on the same firmware version and in the same wireless mode (station-bridge) have different OID’s for signal strength?
I can see the first part of the OID’s are identical, but the numbers after the 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1.3 seem almost randomized.
How are these decided? Maybe based off a serial number or MAC Address? Are these going to change if I have to swap out the units causing me to need to re-create any graphs?
E.g.
Unit 1
/interface wireless> registration-table print oid
0 signal-strength=.1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1.3.108.59.107.117.141.153.2
Unit 2
/interface wireless> registration-table print oid
0 signal-strength=.1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1.3.76.94.12.124.6.8.2
i don´t believe that the MAC address is part of an OID, because i made the test with 2 identical devices (DiscLite5), the same firmware, the same configuration and they’re conected in the same AP.
When i print their OID’s i get:
Device A: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1.3.108.59.107.111.166.36.1
Device B: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1.3.108.59.107.111.166.36.2
The last number is the only different and their MAC’s address are too diferent. Also i changed their MAC address and the OID doesn´t change.
I’m looking for the parameter that change a OID because im trying to monitoring about 200 mikrotik devices and i don´t want to made many variables for each OID of those devices (i use the dude client to monitoring them).
Oh!, i almost forget it, When you connect your device to another APP with different frequency, the OID changes
