I need to monitor the link status/quality ccq for Ubiquiti radios. They do not offer the status via SNMP.

bridge ccq link-status snmp ubiquiti

I wrote a script to do this and put it on github. The web configuration uses AJAX to show this information and after disecting it I found the url request it uses and it outputs JSON. So we need to connect to the page and authenticate and request the data and parse it for out. I have it set up as a batch script external sensor that executes perl. So perl must be installed.

Example parameters

71.1.77.97 user pass 68:72:51:0c:71:a0 ccq

The ccq is the parameter I want.

Hello Thomas and thank you for your post and for sharing your script.

I'm not sure which equipment you're referring to, but several UBNT (Ubiquity) devices implement the MIKROTIK-MIB, which can be imported.

Once imported, the mtxrWl section should provide you with TX and RX Strength and signal level. Note: Most UBNT devices only implement SNMP V1, they will fail to reply to SNMP v2c queries.

Best Regards,
