6 To create the certificate to be sent to the ELA Management Station, click Generate Certificate button.
If the certificate is properly generated and the connection with the ELA Management Station is
made, the Connection Status section displays the following message:
OPSEC Connection OK
If there is an error in generating the certificate or establishing the connection, the Connection Status
section displays the following message:
OPSEC Connection Error
ELA Management Station events
The events for the ELA Management Station are grouped under Extreme Networks and are mapped as
info events and alert events. The alerts include:
● Altitude AP registration and/or authentication failed
● Authentication User Request unsuccessful
● RADIUS server rejected login (Access Rejected)
● An unknown AP has attempted to connect. AP authentication failure.
● A connection request failed to authenticate with the CM messaging server. This may indicate port-
scanning of the Summit WM series switch, or a back-door access attempt.
● Unauthorized client attempting to connect
Enabling SNMP
The Summit WM series switch, access points, and WLAN switch software system supports Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Version 1 and 2c. SNMP, a set of protocols for managing
complex networks, is used to retrieve Summit WM series switch statistics and configuration
information.
SNMP sends messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. Devices on
the network that are SNMP-compliant, called agents, store data about themselves in Management
Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
MIB support
The Summit WM series switch, access points, and WLAN switch software system accepts SNMP Get
commands and generates Trap messages. Support is provided for the retrieval information from the
router MIB-II (SNMP_GET) as well as SNMP traps. The supported MIBs include:
● SNMPv2-MIB
● IF-MIB
● IEEE802dot11-MIB
● RFC1213-MIB
NOTE
The Summit WM series switch is not fully compliant with MIB II. For example, esa/IXP ports only provide interface
statistics.
