Getting a little frustrated with an OID which keeps changing.  I am trying to 
put a script together for Ubiquiti AirOS devices.  The only problem is that 
their OIDs are dynamic.  I'm trying to monitor some IEEE802.11 MIB variables.

When I do:

snmpwalk -v1 -c [string] [ip] .1.2.840.10036

I get:

iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "00:15:6D:AD:38:6E"
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.7.7 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.8.7 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9.7 = STRING: "SSID"
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.10.7 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.11.7 = Hex-STRING: 02 04 0B 16 
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.1.7 = STRING: "00:15:6D:AD:38:6E"
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.2.7 = INTEGER: 2346
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.5.7 = INTEGER: 2346

iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.3.7 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.4.7 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.14.7 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.1.7 = STRING: "00:15:6D"
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.2.7 = STRING: "Ubiquiti Networks, Inc."
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.3.7 = STRING: "PowerStation2"
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.4.7 = STRING: "XS2.ar2316.v3.4"
iso.2.840.10036.4.1.1.1.7 = INTEGER: 5
iso.2.840.10036.4.5.1.1.7 = INTEGER: 11

After reboot, I get:

iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.1.8 = STRING: "00:15:6D:AD:38:6E"
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.7.8 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.8.8 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.9.8 = STRING: "SSID"
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.10.8 = INTEGER: 1
iso.2.840.10036.1.1.1.11.8 = Hex-STRING: 02 04 0B 16 
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.1.8 = STRING: "00:15:6D:AD:38:6E"
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.2.8 = INTEGER: 2346
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.5.8 = INTEGER: 2346
iso.2.840.10036.2.1.1.9.8 = STRING: "0xb202"
iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.3.8 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.4.8 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.2.2.1.14.8 = INTEGER: 0
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.1.8 = STRING: "00:15:6D"
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.2.8 = STRING: "Ubiquiti Networks, Inc."
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.3.8 = STRING: "PowerStation2"
iso.2.840.10036.3.1.2.1.4.8 = STRING: "XS2.ar2316.v3.4"
iso.2.840.10036.4.1.1.1.8 = INTEGER: 5
iso.2.840.10036.4.5.1.1.8 = INTEGER: 11

The problem, then, is that not all of our ubiquiti devices have the same OID, 
and even if they do, they are not guaranteed to stay the same.  How do I 
monitor this?  Just for good measure, here is an example of the type of script 
I have been attempting to use:


Code:
<!-- 
   ubiquiti probe for InterMapper - http://intermapper.com 
   Copy this text and save as a file named: test.ubiquiti.txt
   Then import it using File -> Import -> Probe... 
    
   This is a custom probe that monitors several variables for InterMapper. 
      ... You can add more commentary if it would be useful ...
