dude to visualize a chart with Rx signal strength for specific client

Fri Sep 10, 2021 12:06 pm

Hi all,

can anyone plz help? I have some Nest Hello doorbells that seem to loose signal strength.
Due to an access list on my wifi network my wifi network drops signals lower than -80 dB.
I already have extended the access list for these doorbells to -100 dB and everything went fine again, until yesterday: again drops of the doorbell/camera stream.

Now, I want to visualize in a Dude graph the received signal strength. In the capsman I can see the actual Rx value, but I need to plot these in a graph for further trend analysis.

Any suggestions how to create a graph for this purpose? which values to find and plot? Any help is appreaciated

KR, Eric

PS: complete MT network, running rOS 6.48.3, running Capsman perfectly with 16 CAP interfaces.
MT rulezz!!

Nobody? This question is still valid. Plz anyone?
I would like to visualize in a chart what the received signal strength for a specific client is. My gut feeling is that this should be possible, but I am kind of a newbie for Dude 'programming'

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

KR, Eric

Well some lazy implementation.
Add Mikrotik MIB tot DUDE
Do a SNMPwalk on the MT AP.
Find the registration based on the MAC address of the device
You get an OID number (tail is probably the decimal encoded MAC address)
Find the value you are interested in, based on that OID number tail as reference
Create a data source (right click)
Edit data source by adding the first 1 in the OID 1.3.6..... (it's missing!)
Make a chart with that data source
