Topology Information
Based upon the manufacturer and software version devices may support
some combination of Layer 2 topology protocol information. SNMP::Info
supports querying Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), Cisco Discovery
Protocol (CDP), SynOptics/Bay/Nortel/Avaya Network Management Protocol
(SONMP), Foundry/Brocade Discovery Protocol (FDP), and Extreme Discovery
Protocol (EDP).
For protocol specific information and implementation:
LLDP: See SNMP::Info::LLDP for details.
CDP: See SNMP::Info::CDP for details.
SONMP: See SNMP::Info::SONMP for details.
FDP: See SNMP::Info::FDP for details.
EDP: See SNMP::Info::EDP for details.
Topology Capabilities
$info->has_topo()
Reports Layer 2 topology protocols which are supported and running
on a device.
Returns either a reference to an array of protocols, possible values
being: "lldp", "cdp", "sonmp", "fdp", "edp" or "undef" if no
protocols are supported or running.
Common Topology Table Information
The common topology table methods below will query the device for
information from the specified topology protocols and return a single
hash combining all information. As a result, there may be identical
topology information returned from the two protocols causing duplicate
entries. It is the calling program's responsibility to identify any
duplicate entries and remove duplicates if necessary. If it is necessary
to understand which protocol provided the information, utilize the
protocol specific methods directly rather than the generic methods.
The methods support partial table fetches by providing a partial as the
first argument.
If a reference to an array is provided as the second argument, those
protocols will be queried for information. The supported array values
are: "lldp", "cdp", "sonmp", "fdp", "edp".
If nothing is passed in as the second argument, the methods will call
has_topo() to determine supported and running topology protocols on the
device.
$info->c_ip(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
Returns reference to hash. Key: iid, Value: remote IPv4 address
If multiple entries exist with the same local port, c_if(), with the
same IPv4 address, c_ip(), it may be a duplicate entry.
If multiple entries exist with the same local port, c_if(), with
different IPv4 addresses, c_ip(), there is either a device in
between two or more devices utilizing a different topology protocol
or multiple devices which are not directly connected.
Use the protocol specific methods to dig deeper.
$info->c_if(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
Returns reference to hash. Key: iid, Value: local device port
(interfaces)
$info->c_port(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
Returns reference to hash. Key: iid, Value: remote port (interfaces)
$info->c_id(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
Returns reference to hash. Key: iid, Value: string value used to
identify the chassis component associated with the remote system.
Note: SONMP does not return this information.
$info->c_platform(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
Returns reference to hash. Key: iid, Value: Remote Device Type
Note: LLDP and EDP do not provide this information.

Example: $info->name() calls autoload which calls
$info->_global('name').
Example: $info->name() on the first call dispatches to AUTOLOAD()
which calls $info->_global('name') creating the method name().
These methods return data as a scalar.

a loaded MIB or the set_multi() method to set multiple variable in
one command. When run clears attr cache.

Attr is passed as either a scalar for dynamic methods or a reference

Attr can be passed as either a scalar or a reference to an array or

_validate_autoload_method(method)
Used internally by AUTOLOAD to validate that a dynamic method should
be created. Returns the OID of the MIB leaf node the method will get
or set.
1. Returns unless method is listed in %FUNCS, %GLOBALS, or is MIB
Leaf node name in a loaded MIB for given class.
2. Translates the MIB Leaf node name to an OID.
3. Checks to see if the method access type is allowed for the
resolved OID. Write access for set_ methods, read access for others.
$info->can()
Overrides UNIVERSAL::can() so that objects will correctly report
their capabilities to include dynamic methods generated at run time
via AUTOLOAD.
Calls parent can() first to see if method exists, if not validates
that a method should be created then dispatches to the appropriate
internal method for creation. The newly created method is inserted
into the symbol table returning to AUTOLOAD only for the initial
method call.
Returns undef if the method does not exist and can not be created.
AUTOLOAD
Each entry in either %FUNCS, %GLOBALS, or MIB Leaf node names present in
loaded MIBs are used by AUTOLOAD() to create dynamic methods.
loaded MIBs are used by AUTOLOAD() to create dynamic methods. Generated
methods are inserted into the symbol table so that subsequent calls can
avoid AUTOLOAD() and dispatch directly.
Note that this AUTOLOAD is going to be run for all the classes listed in
the @ISA array in a subclass, so will be called with a variety of
package names. We check the %FUNCS and %GLOBALS of the package that is
doing the calling at this given instant.

1. Returns unless method is listed in %FUNCS, %GLOBALS, or is a MIB Leaf

2. Checks for load_ prefix and if present runs $info->_global(method)
for methods which exist in %GLOBALS or are a single instance MIB Leaf
node name, otherwise runs $info->_load_attr(method) for methods which
exist in %FUNCS or are MIB Leaf node name contained within a table. This
always forces reloading and does not use cached data.
3. Check for set_ prefix and if present runs $info->_set(method).
4. If the method exists in %GLOBALS or is a single instance MIB Leaf
node name it runs $info->_global(method) unless already cached.
5. If the method exists in %FUNCS or is MIB Leaf node name contained
within a table it runs $info->_load_attr(method) if not cached.
6. Otherwise return $info->_show_attr(method).
2. If the method exists in %GLOBALS or is a single instance MIB Leaf
