1. A method for generating an alarm in a wireless network, the method comprising:
determining, by an access point within the wireless network, an operational status of the access point;
generating, by the access point, a fault management trap to indicate the alarm relating to the operational status of the access point in response to a client device within the wireless network attempting to connect to the access point;
updating, by the access point, an active alarm table to include the alarm;
receiving, by the access point, a poll from a headend within the wireless network for a status of the access point; and
providing, by the access point, the active alarm table to the headend in response to the poll.
