Resolution
After going through an SNMP walk, Smarts IP counts the total instances of each of the following OIDs for Rouge Wireless APs, WAPs, and wireless clients:
OID for Rouge Wireless APs
bsnRogueAPState - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.1.7.1.24"}
OID for Wireless APs
cLApName - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.513.1.1.1.1.5"}
OID for Wireless Clients
cldcApMacAddress - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.599.1.3.1.1.8"}
The number of instances of these OIDs will vary and are dynamic in nature. This information is provided by the Cisco Wireless Controller device SNMP agent and used to calculate the totals seen in the following example:
OID for Rouge Wireless APs
bsnRogueAPState - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.14179.2.1.7.1.24"}
OID for Wireless APs
cLApName - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.513.1.1.1.1.5"}
OID for Wireless Clients
cldcApMacAddress - {".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.599.1.3.1.1.8"}
