Good luck. Linksys uses a limited subset of SNMP to do configuration
and setup. All that SNMP does is set some values and return a few
results. No ANS.1, no vendor specific OID's, therefore, no MIB. If
you walk the MIB tree, you'll see some of the ID information, followed
by some glop that can be identified as settable values. I tried to
reverse engineer a WAP11 and found a long binary OID that was all the
status information on one line. I decoded some of it and suspect I
could figure out the rest. However, I was looking for things like
number of associations, signal strength, S/N ratio, and other useful
stuff. They apparently weren't there, so I gave up. I also found
that if I polled this OID repeatedly, the AP would eventually hang.
If I find my notes, I'll pass it on.
Incidentally, the D-Link DWL-900AP+ has a similar SNMP misfeature with
no MIB available.
Good luck.
