I will say with 100% certainty, if Canopy PMP gear was supported, I would have absolutely no issue purchasing the product.
I'm still playing with the community version.
These are the items that are causing me slight hesitation:
- Email alerts when triggers are met - As I understand this functions in the subscription version
- Grouping (being able to have my Access Points grouped together, and also have all clients on one access point visible together) - Again I understand this is part of the subscription version
- Canopy PMP100 support (this and the 2 previous items would make this an easy choice for me).
I do not yet have the subscription version, it seems there is some confusion on whether alerts and grouping are working 100% on the subscription version to meet my needs, can anyone verify yes or no?
We use primarily Canopy PMP100, and Ubiquiti in our network. And use Mikrotik routers.
Thanks.

Just doing some digging on a couple of UBNT nanostations I'm running, it appears that UBNT are utilizing some SNMP OIDs from the Mikrotik MIB (enterprises.14988) in addition to their own (FROGFOOT, enterprises.10002) MIB. Most importantly, it's the radio-side statistics OIDs... here's what I'm getting from a client-side 3.65GHz radio:
FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::memTotal.0 = Gauge32: 29524 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::memFree.0 = Gauge32: 11024 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::memBuffer.0 = Gauge32: 2080 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::memCache.0 = Gauge32: 0 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::swapTotal.0 = Gauge32: 0 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::swapFree.0 = Gauge32: 0 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadNumber.0 = INTEGER: 3 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadIndex.3 = INTEGER: 3 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadDescr.1 = STRING: 1 Minute Average FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadDescr.2 = STRING: 5 Minute Average FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadDescr.3 = STRING: 15 Minute Average FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadValue.1 = Gauge32: 0 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadValue.2 = Gauge32: 0 FROGFOOT-RESOURCES-MIB::loadValue.3 = Gauge32: 0 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatTxRate.5 = Gauge32: 146250000 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatRxRate.5 = Gauge32: 146250000 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatStrength.5 = INTEGER: -60 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatSsid.5 = STRING: CHANGEDTOPROTECTTHEGUILTY MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatBssid.5 = STRING: CHANGEDTOPROTECTTHEGUILTY MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlStatFreq.5 = INTEGER: 3667 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabStrength.'.'"FV.'.5 = INTEGER: -60 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabTxBytes.'.'"FV.'.5 = Counter32: 2031561417 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabRxBytes.'.'"FV.'.5 = Counter32: 704139062 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabTxPackets.'.'"FV.'.5 = Counter32: 111296 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabRxPackets.'.'"FV.'.5 = Counter32: 151967791 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabTxRate.'.'"FV.'.5 = Gauge32: 146250000 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabRxRate.'.'"FV.'.5 = Gauge32: 146250000
Looking at the AP side walk, it shows RF data for both of the connected stations on this one AP, but the differentiator isn't using a normal SNMP OID number, rather it's a field, in my case "FV." vs "FW."... MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabStrength.'.'"FV.'.5 = INTEGER: -64 MIKROTIK-MIB::mtxrWlRtabStrength.'.'"FW.'.5 = INTEGER: -70 So that may make things a bit more interesting trying to figure out how to poll/graph that information.
I haven't even tried beating on any of our AF24s yet, that'll be next.

Adam,
I would love to see support for Airfiber and Ubiquiti Airmax radios too.
Thanks!

Unfortunately I think the wireless ISPs have figured out how good this product is and you are only going to get more requests for this kind of thing.
When the time comes, I can make available wireless hardware for Ubiquiti AirFiber 24 ghz and 5 ghz links as well as Mikrotik point to point and point to multipoint links for use by the development team. (public ip snmp access) Also willing to lend wireless experience/explanations.
Ubuiquiti's snmp implementation on the AirFiber's are just wacky. Only traffic that the CPU processes shows under the usual interface spot i.e. management traffic. The traffic you actually want to see is in a whole other section. It's mostly because of the hardware structure of the radio with is dsp's and such.

The SNMP implementations and MIB structure on these wireless devices make me want to stab out my eyes.
We have some vague plans to try to work out some infrasdtructure to fit wireless kit into in the future, but none of us have any wireless experience, and each of the vendors seem to have approached the problem in (at least one) entirely different (and usually equally broken) manner, making it even harder to come up with a common schema.
At the moment there isn't a place to put bounties, mostly because it encourages people to expect major (and often ill-advised) changes for small amounts of money. ;)

Any plans to add wireless signal metric graphs to Observium? Such as signal strength and SNR. Example device being Cambium Canopy CPE's.
Is there a place to put feature bounties and payments for completion bounties?
Thanks
