The ifSpeed is I understand meant to be the rated speed of an interface, not the minute to minute actual speed. In the case of Ethernet interfaces obviously the two are normally the same and the speed does not change other than congestion.
Is there a corresponding value for wireless cards that does reflect the current speed (an 802.11b card can for instance operate at 11, 5, 2 and 1 Mb/s)? Is this something that the wireless driver has to support specifically, or does snmp find it from the same place that iwconfig finds it (I am here talking about a linux 2.6 system). The particular drivers I am working with as the hostap and madwifi drivers, but from time to time I do use others.
