Discover ExtremeNetworks Wireless controller/AP?

[DaveHertel]

Hi - Has anyone built Discovery pattern (or even probe/sensor...) to discover Extreme Networks Access Points?   ExtremeNetworks uses a controller and is SNMP enabled.  I'm presuming (hoping) it may be similar to Aruba AP discovery (another product without an OOB pattern...)    I've previously used John Frandsen's Aruba update set here and may model Extreme* after that...but I don't know if it'll be similar or not.   If anyone has already built the ExtremeNetworks discovery components, please share.  

I'm facing starting from scratch and appreciate any helpful hints from others.    Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,

I might be soon facing some similar challenges. Were you able to build a pattern for Extreme network devices? Any direction here would be helpful!

Thanks,

Joe

Hi - yes, I had to build a solution since nothing seemed to exist (either from SNOW, nor in the community that I was able to find).  I mostly used the prior work done for Aruba with some minor tweaks I think (working from memory here... 🙂 ) 

Hope this helps a bit?

HI @DaveHertel  - Can you share the update set for extreme that helped discover extreme APs or suggest what changes you made to Aruba pattern. Thank you.

Hi @Abdul I'm attaching 3 year-old update set.  No promises it'll work, but hope it helps some.  This was just the basic discovery to get the AP controller scanned & inventoried into the CMDB.  Nothing special, not a deep discovery just the basics.  As mentioned earlier in the thread it was based off the Aruba work done prior to that.   

I'm curious to hear how this works out.  Hope it helps some...
