How to Add Arista Wireless Access Points in Logic Monitor?

Hello Team,

Can someone guide me how to add the Arista Wireless APs in Logic Monitor. One of our client uses Arista APs in their remote sites which we manage through Arista Cloud Vision Portal. We would like to know if this can be done in LM or not?

 

Thanks & regards,

Gautam Venna

  • What model are the Arista APs?  If you don’t want to create an API-based integration with Arista CloudVision, the easiest way would be to use the CloudVision Portal to configure the SNMP and Syslog Settings so LogicMonitor can collect metrics via SNMP and send syslogs and traps to LM Logs.

    An example you might refer to are the Ubiquiti UniFi AP modules we launched in 2024.

  • Hi gautamvenna​ we have just recently migrated to Arista AP's as part of our remote office strategy and it is clear they do not support SNMP, so there were two options the first as mentioned by Patrick_Rouse​ to integrate with the cloud vision portal, or scrape the outputs you can get from logging on via SSH, I went for the API integration and have just completed a write up here with in the LM Community.

    I had to move to Python to do the Device discovery (NetScan) for speed of delivery as I only use Groovy when working in LogicMonitor as I was hitting challenges and needed to get the monitoring done I switched to Python, but the API integrations for LM and CV-CUE are relatively straight forward, the biggest challenge was the way our locations are nested in the CV-CUE structure.    There are problems sharing the python script due to it using our LM Core Python Library which we use across all our integrations for efficiency and I do have it in my backlog to move to groovy, but can't give you a timescale as to when I would do this.  

  • Hello Patrick,

     

    Happy New Year!!

    Thanks for your update. We are currently using C-260 Model Arista APs as shown in the below screenshot
