Looking to enable SNMP on AP's that are managed via a 5520 WLC.
Looked all over the management pages and I can see where to manage the WLC with SNMP but nothing on the individual AP's.
I know that I can remote intot the AP's and configure it there, but that will not survive a reboot.
this should be available somewhere.

if I understand correctly you looking to monitor each AP - But unfortunately there is no option directly poll against AP, since the AP managed by WLC, so you should have the ability to get the information what you looking from WLC
is this something that works for you?
As per individual AP reboot concern (you can use WLC command level to reboot the AP)
But i use most of the Time Prime to reboot the AP.

Monitoring and Discovering the AP’s is my main concern. I use Netformx to create topology maps for my customers, and since there is no SNMP RO strings, I can not discover them and place them on the map. This then feeds into being ablke to easily report on devices that. Have reached End of Sale/End of Support using Cisco’s tools. I also use SNMP to get performance information using another package which helps to report on performance hot spots within the network. Being able to have a RO string palced on the AP’s would be a great help.
The fact that I can enable snmp through the CLI seems like it should be “simple” to be able to have it as an option within the gui of the WLC.
