Ubiquiti radios

WISPMap reads Ubiquiti radios over SNMP: airMAX (airOS 6 and 8), airFiber (AF5, AF11, AF24 and others), LTU and AF60. See other makes over SNMP for what you get and how the credentials work.

Turn on SNMP

The menu names differ a little between firmware versions.

airMAX (airOS 8 and 6): on the Services tab, turn on SNMP Agent, and set the SNMP Community (read-only), and the contact and location if you like. Save and apply.

airFiber AF5, AF11, AF24 and similar: on the Services tab, turn on the SNMP Agent and set the community.

LTU and AF60 (the newer interface): under Settings → Services, turn on SNMP and set the community.

Choose a community that's hard to guess: public is the first thing anyone tries. If your firmware offers SNMP v3, use it.

Add the radio

Put the community in the collector's .env (SNMP_COMMUNITY=..., or a profile such as SNMP_COMMUNITY_UBNT), restart the collector, and add the radio in Admin → Devices with Kind SNMP (other makes), the right Role (access point or backhaul) and its management address.

What you'll see

• airMAX access points: every station's name, IP, signal, SNR, CCQ, airMAX quality, rates and connected time. Your customers' radios are matched to customers by MAC.
• airMAX stations (a CPE or a backhaul's far end): the access point it's connected to, with signal, SNR and rates.
• airFiber: the link's receive signal at both ends (the better of the two chains), its capacity in each direction and how long it has been up. airFiber doesn't report the far end's MAC, so WISPMap can't tie the reading to the radio at the other end: you see the current signal on the radio's page, but there's no signal history and no weaker signal alert for an airFiber link yet.
• LTU and AF60: every connected station, with signal at both ends and capacity.

AF11 and AF24 radios report their frequency in kHz; WISPMap shows it in MHz like everything else.
