DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    SNMP::Info gives an object oriented interface to information obtained
 | 
						|
    through SNMP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This module is geared towards network devices. Subclasses exist for a
 | 
						|
    number of network devices and common MIBs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The idea behind this module is to give a common interface to data from
 | 
						|
    network devices, leaving the device-specific hacks behind the scenes in
 | 
						|
    subclasses.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    In the SYNOPSIS example we fetch the name of all the ports on the device
 | 
						|
    and the duplex setting for that port with two methods -- interfaces()
 | 
						|
    and i_duplex().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The information may be coming from any number of MIB files and is very
 | 
						|
    vendor specific. SNMP::Info provides you a common method for all
 | 
						|
    supported devices.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Adding support for your own device is easy, and takes little SNMP
 | 
						|
    knowledge.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The module is not limited to network devices. Any MIB or device can be
 | 
						|
    given an objected oriented front-end by making a module that consists of
 | 
						|
    a couple hashes. See EXTENDING SNMP::INFO.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
REQUIREMENTS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    1. Net-SNMP
 | 
						|
        To use this module, you must have Net-SNMP installed on your system.
 | 
						|
        More specifically you need the Perl modules that come with it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        DO NOT INSTALL SNMP:: or Net::SNMP from CPAN!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        The SNMP module is matched to an install of net-snmp, and must be
 | 
						|
        installed from the net-snmp source tree.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        The Perl module "SNMP" is found inside the net-snmp distribution. Go
 | 
						|
        to the perl/ directory of the distribution to install it, or run
 | 
						|
        "./configure --with-perl-modules" from the top directory of the
 | 
						|
        net-snmp distribution.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Net-SNMP can be found at http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Version 5.3.2 or greater is recommended.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Versions 5.0.1, 5.0301 and 5.0203 have issues with bulkwalk and are
 | 
						|
        not supported.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Redhat Users: Some versions that come with certain versions of
 | 
						|
        Redhat/Fedora don't have the Perl library installed. Uninstall the
 | 
						|
        RPM and install by hand.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    2. MIBS
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info operates on textual descriptors found in MIBs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If you are using SNMP::Info separate from Netdisco, download the
 | 
						|
        Netdisco MIB package at
 | 
						|
        <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=80033&package
 | 
						|
        _id=135517>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Make sure that your snmp.conf is updated to point to your MIB
 | 
						|
        directory and that the MIBs are world-readable.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESIGN GOALS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    1. Use of textual MIB leaf identifier and enumerated values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        *   All values are retrieved via MIB Leaf node names
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            For example SNMP::Info has an entry in its %GLOBALS hash for
 | 
						|
            ``sysName'' instead of 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        *   Data returned is in the enumerated value form.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            For Example instead of looking up 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3 and
 | 
						|
            getting back 23
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            SNMP::Info will ask for "RFC1213-MIB::ifType" and will get back
 | 
						|
            "ppp".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    2. SNMP::Info is easily extended to new devices
 | 
						|
        You can create a new subclass for a device by providing four hashes
 | 
						|
        : %GLOBALS, %MIBS, %FUNCS, and %MUNGE.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Or you can override any existing methods from a parent class by
 | 
						|
        making a short subroutine.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        See the section EXTENDING SNMP::INFO for more details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        When you make a new subclass for a device, please be sure to send it
 | 
						|
        back to the developers (via Source Forge or the mailing list) for
 | 
						|
        inclusion in the next version.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
SUBCLASSES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    These are the subclasses that implement MIBs and support devices:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Required MIBs not included in the install instructions above are noted
 | 
						|
    here.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  MIB Subclasses
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    These subclasses implement method to access one or more MIBs. These are
 | 
						|
    not used directly, but rather inherited from device subclasses.

						|
 | 
						|
  Constructor
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    new()
 | 
						|
        Creates a new object and connects via SNMP::Session.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         my $info = new SNMP::Info( 'Debug'             => 1,

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info Specific Arguments :
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        AutoSpecify
 | 
						|
            Returns an object of a more specific device class
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 0, which means "off")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        BigInt
 | 
						|
            Return Math::BigInt objects for 64 bit counters. Sets on a
 | 
						|
            global scope, not object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 0, which means "off")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        BulkWalk
 | 
						|
            Set to 0 to turn off BULKWALK commands for SNMPv2 connections.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            Note that BULKWALK is turned off for Net-SNMP versions 5.1.x
 | 
						|
            because of a bug.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 1, which means "on")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        BulkRepeaters
 | 
						|
            Set number of MaxRepeaters for BULKWALK operation. See "perldoc
 | 
						|
            SNMP" -> bulkwalk() for more info.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 20)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        LoopDetect
 | 
						|
            Detects looping during getnext table column walks by comparing
 | 
						|
            IIDs for each instance. A loop is detected if the same IID is
 | 
						|
            seen more than once and the walk is aborted. Note: This will not
 | 
						|
            detect loops during a bulkwalk operation, Net-SNMP's internal
 | 
						|
            bulkwalk function must detect the loop.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            Set to 0 to turn off loop detection.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 1, which means "on")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        IgnoreNetSNMPConf
 | 
						|
            Net-SNMP version 5.0 and higher read configuration files,
 | 
						|
            snmp.conf or snmp.local.conf, from /etc/snmp, /usr/share/snmp,
 | 
						|
            /usr/lib(64)/snmp, or $HOME/.snmp and uses those settings to
 | 
						|
            automatically parse MIB files, etc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            Set to 1 "on" to ignore Net-SNMP configuration files by
 | 
						|
            overriding the "SNMPCONFPATH" environmental variable during
 | 
						|
            object initialization. Note: MibDirs must be defined or Net-SNMP
 | 
						|
            will not be able to load MIBs and initialize the object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 0, which means "off")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Debug
 | 
						|
            Prints Lots of debugging messages. Pass 2 to print even more
 | 
						|
            debugging messages.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 0, which means "off")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        DebugSNMP
 | 
						|
            Set $SNMP::debugging level for Net-SNMP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            See SNMP for more details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        MibDirs
 | 
						|
            Array ref to list of directories in which to look for MIBs. Note
 | 
						|
            this will be in addition to the ones setup in snmp.conf at the
 | 
						|
            system level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default use net-snmp settings only)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        RetryNoSuch
 | 
						|
            When using SNMP Version 1, try reading values even if they come
 | 
						|
            back as "no such variable in this MIB". Set to false if so
 | 
						|
            desired. This feature lets you read SNMPv2 data from an SNMP
 | 
						|
            version 1 connection, and should probably be left on.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 1, which means "on")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Session
 | 
						|
            SNMP::Session object to use instead of connecting on own.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default creates session automatically)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Offline
 | 
						|
            Causes SNMP::Info to avoid network activity and return data only
 | 
						|
            from its cache. If you ask for something not in the cache, an
 | 
						|
            error is thrown. See also the "cache()" and "offline()" methods.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            (default 0, which means "online")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Cache
 | 
						|
            Pass in a HashRef to prime the cache of retrieved data. Useful
 | 
						|
            for creating an instance in "Offline" mode from a previously
 | 
						|
            dumped cache. See also the "cache()" method to retrieve a cache
 | 
						|
            after running actial queries.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        OTHER
 | 
						|
            All other arguments are passed to SNMP::Session.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            See SNMP::Session for a list of other possible arguments.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        A Note about the wrong Community string or wrong SNMP Version:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If a connection is using the wrong community string or the wrong
 | 
						|
        SNMP version, the creation of the object will not fail. The device
 | 
						|
        still answers the call on the SNMP port, but will not return
 | 
						|
        information. Check the error() method after you create the device
 | 
						|
        object to see if there was a problem in connecting.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        A note about SNMP Versions :
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Some older devices don't support SNMP version 2, and will not return
 | 
						|
        anything when a connection under Version 2 is attempted.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Some newer devices will support Version 1, but will not return all
 | 
						|
        the data they might have if you had connected under Version 1
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        When trying to get info from a new device, you may have to try
 | 
						|
        version 2 and then fallback to version 1.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    update()
 | 
						|
        Replace the existing session with a new one with updated values,
 | 
						|
        without re-identifying the device. The only supported changes are to
 | 
						|
        Community or Context.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Clears the object cache.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        This is useful, e.g., when a device supports multiple contexts (via
 | 
						|
        changes to the Community string, or via the SNMPv3 Context
 | 
						|
        parameter), but a context that you want to access does not support
 | 
						|
        the objects (e.g., "sysObjectID", "sysDescr") that we use to
 | 
						|
        identify the device.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Data is Cached
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Methods and subroutines requesting data from a device will only load the
 | 
						|
    data once, and then return cached versions of that data.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Run $info->load_METHOD() where method is something like 'i_name' to
 | 
						|
    reload data from a method.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Run $info->clear_cache() to clear the cache to allow reload of both
 | 
						|
    globals and table methods.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The cache can be retreved or set using the $info->cache() method. This
 | 
						|
    works together with the "Offline" option.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Object Scalar Methods
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    These are for package related data, not directly supplied from SNMP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->clear_cache()
 | 
						|
        Clears the cached data. This includes GLOBALS data and TABLE METHOD
 | 
						|
        data.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->debug(1)
 | 
						|
        Returns current debug status, and optionally toggles debugging info
 | 
						|
        for this object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->offline([1|0])
 | 
						|
        Returns if offline mode is currently turned on for this object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Optionally sets the Offline parameter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->cache([new_cache])
 | 
						|
        Returns a HashRef of all cached data in this object. There will be a
 | 
						|
        "store" key for table data and then one key for each leaf.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Optionally sets the cache parameters if passed a HashRef.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->bulkwalk([1|0])
 | 
						|
        Returns if bulkwalk is currently turned on for this object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Optionally sets the bulkwalk parameter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->loopdetect([1|0])
 | 
						|
        Returns if loopdetect is currently turned on for this object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Optionally sets the loopdetect parameter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->device_type()
 | 
						|
        Returns the Subclass name for this device. "SNMP::Info" is returned
 | 
						|
        if no more specific class is available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        First the device is checked for Layer 3 support and a specific
 | 
						|
        subclass, then Layer 2 support and subclasses are checked.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        This means that Layer 2 / 3 switches and routers will fall under the
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info::Layer3 subclasses.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If the device still can be connected to via SNMP::Info, then
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info is returned.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        See <http://netdisco.org/doc/DeviceMatrix.html> or DeviceMatrix.txt
 | 
						|
        for more details about device support, or view "device_type()" in
 | 
						|
        Info.pm.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->error(no_clear)
 | 
						|
        Returns Error message if there is an error, or undef if there is
 | 
						|
        not.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Reading the error will clear the error unless you set the no_clear
 | 
						|
        flag.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->has_layer(3)
 | 
						|
        Returns non-zero if the device has the supplied layer in the OSI
 | 
						|
        Model
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Returns if the device doesn't support the layers() call.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->snmp_comm()
 | 
						|
        Returns SNMP Community string used in connection.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->snmp_ver()
 | 
						|
        Returns SNMP Version used for this connection
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->specify()
 | 
						|
        Returns an object of a more-specific subclass.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         my $info = new SNMP::Info(...);
 | 
						|
         # Returns more specific object type
 | 
						|
         $info = $info->specific();
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Usually this method is called internally from new(AutoSpecify => 1)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        See device_type() entry for how a subclass is chosen.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->cisco_comm_indexing()
 | 
						|
        Returns 0. Is an overridable method used for vlan indexing for snmp
 | 
						|
        calls on certain Cisco devices.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        See
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Globals (Scalar Methods)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    These are methods to return scalar data from RFC1213.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Some subset of these is probably available for any network device that
 | 
						|
    speaks SNMP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->uptime()
 | 
						|
        Uptime in hundredths of seconds since device became available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        ("sysUpTime")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->contact()
 | 
						|
        ("sysContact")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->name()
 | 
						|
        ("sysName")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->location()
 | 
						|
        ("sysLocation")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->layers()
 | 
						|
        This returns a binary encoded string where each digit represents a
 | 
						|
        layer of the OSI model served by the device.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            eg: 01000010  means layers 2 (physical) and 7 (Application) 
 | 
						|
                          are served.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Note: This string is 8 digits long.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        See $info->has_layer()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        ("sysServices")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->ports()
 | 
						|
        Number of interfaces available on this device.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Not too useful as the number of SNMP interfaces usually does not
 | 
						|
        correspond with the number of physical ports
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        ("ifNumber")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->ipforwarding()
 | 
						|
        The indication of whether the entity is acting as an IP gateway
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Returns either forwarding or not-forwarding
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        ("ipForwarding")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Table Methods
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Each of these methods returns a hash_reference to a hash keyed on the
 | 
						|
    interface index in SNMP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Example : $info->interfaces() might return
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        { '1.12' => 'FastEthernet/0',
 | 
						|
          '2.15' => 'FastEthernet/1',
 | 
						|
          '9.99' => 'FastEthernet/2'
 | 
						|
        }
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The key is what you would see if you were to do an snmpwalk, and in some
 | 
						|
    cases changes between reboots of the network device.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Partial Table Fetches
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    If you want to get only a part of an SNMP table or a single instance
 | 
						|
    from the table and you know the IID for the part of the table that you
 | 
						|
    want, you can specify it in the call:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        $local_routes = $info->ipr_route('192.168.0');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This will only fetch entries in the table that start with 192.168.0,
 | 
						|
    which in this case are routes on the local network.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Remember that you must supply the partial IID (a numeric OID).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Partial table results are not cached.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Interface Information
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->interfaces()
 | 
						|
        This methods is overridden in each subclass to provide a mapping
 | 
						|
        between the Interface Table Index (iid) and the physical port name.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->if_ignore()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference to a hash where key values that exist are
 | 
						|
        interfaces to ignore.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Ignored interfaces are ones that are usually not physical ports or
 | 
						|
        Virtual Lans (VLANs) such as the Loopback interface, or the CPU
 | 
						|
        interface.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->bulkwalk_no()
 | 
						|
        Returns 0. Is an overridable method used for turn off bulkwalk for
 | 
						|
        the device class.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->i_index()

 | 
						|
        Speed of a high-speed link, human format. See munge_highspeed()
 | 
						|
        later in document for details. You should not need to call this

						|
    $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", "amap" 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", "amap".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    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: EDP does not provide this information. LLDP uses
 | 
						|
        ("lldpRemSysDesc") or "lldp_rem_sysname" as the closest match.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->c_cap(partial, topology_protocol_arrayref)
 | 
						|
        Returns reference to hash of arrays. Key: iid, Value: Array of
 | 
						|
        capabilities supported by the device. See the specific protocol
 | 
						|
        class for string values which could be elements within the array.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Note: Only CDP and LLDP support this method.

SETTING DATA VIA SNMP
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This section explains how to use SNMP::Info to do SNMP Set operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->set_METHOD($value)
 | 
						|
        Sets the global METHOD to value. Assumes that iid is .0
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Returns if failed, or the return value from SNMP::Session::set()
 | 
						|
        (snmp_errno)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         $info->set_location("Here!");
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->set_METHOD($value,$iid)
 | 
						|
        Table Methods. Set iid of method to value.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Returns if failed, or the return value from SNMP::Session::set()
 | 
						|
        (snmp_errno)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         # Disable a port administratively
 | 
						|
         my %if_map = reverse %{$info->interfaces()}
 | 
						|
         $info->set_i_up_admin('down', $if_map{'FastEthernet0/0'}) 
 | 
						|
            or die "Couldn't disable the port. ",$info->error(1);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    NOTE: You must be connected to your device with a "ReadWrite" community
 | 
						|
    string in order for set operations to work.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    NOTE: This will only set data listed in %FUNCS and %GLOBALS. For data
 | 
						|
    acquired from overridden methods (subroutines) specific set_METHOD()
 | 
						|
    subroutines will need to be added if they haven't been already.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Quiet Mode
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    SNMP::Info will not chirp anything to STDOUT unless there is a serious
 | 
						|
    error (in which case it will probably die).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    To get lots of debug info, set the Debug flag when calling new() or call
 | 
						|
    $info->debug(1);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    When calling a method check the return value. If the return value is
 | 
						|
    undef then check $info->error()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Beware, calling $info->error() clears the error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     my $name = $info->name() or die "Couldn't get sysName!" . $name->error();
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
EXTENDING SNMP::INFO
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    To support a new class (vendor or platform) of device, add a Perl
 | 
						|
    package with the data structures and methods listed below.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    If this seems a little scary, then the SNMP::Info developers are usually
 | 
						|
    happy to accept the SNMP data from your device and make an attempt at
 | 
						|
    the class themselves. Usually a "beta" release will go to CPAN for you
 | 
						|
    to verify the implementation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Gathering MIB data for SNMP::Info Developers
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The preference is to open a feature request in the SourceForge project.
 | 
						|
    This allows all developers to have visibility into the request. Please
 | 
						|
    include pointers to the applicable platform MIBs. For development we
 | 
						|
    will need an "snmpwalk" of the device. There is a tool now included in
 | 
						|
    the SNMP::Info distribution to help with this task, although you'll most
 | 
						|
    likely need to download the distribution from CPAN as it's included in
 | 
						|
    the ""t/util"" directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The utility is named "make_snmpdata.pl". Run it with a command line
 | 
						|
    like:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
     ./make_snmpdata.pl -c community -i -d device_ip \
 | 
						|
      -m /home/netdisco-mibs/rfc:/home/netdisco-mibs/net-snmp:/home/netdisco-mibs/dir3 \
 | 
						|
      SNMPv2-MIB IF-MIB EtherLike-MIB BRIDGE-MIB Q-BRIDGE-MIB ENTITY-MIB \
 | 
						|
      POWER-ETHERNET-MIB IPV6-MIB LLDP-MIB DEVICE-SPECIFIC-MIB-NAME(s) > output.txt
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This will print to the file every MIB entry with data in a format that
 | 
						|
    the developers can use to emulate read operations without needing access
 | 
						|
    to the device. Preference would be to mask any sensitive data in the
 | 
						|
    output, zip the file, and upload as an attachment to the Sourceforge
 | 
						|
    tracker. However, if you do not feel comfortable uploading the output to
 | 
						|
    the tracker you could e-mail it to the developer that has claimed the
 | 
						|
    ticket.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Data Structures required in new Subclass
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    A class inheriting this class must implement these data structures :
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $INIT
 | 
						|
        Used to flag if the MIBs have been loaded yet.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    %GLOBALS
 | 
						|
        Contains a hash in the form ( method_name => SNMP MIB leaf name )
 | 
						|
        These are scalar values such as name, uptime, etc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        To resolve MIB leaf name conflicts between private MIBs, you may
 | 
						|
        prefix the leaf name with the MIB replacing each - (dash) and :
 | 
						|
        (colon) with an _ (underscore). For example,
 | 
						|
        ALTEON_TIGON_SWITCH_MIB__agSoftwareVersion would be used as the hash
 | 
						|
        value instead of the net-snmp notation
 | 
						|
        ALTEON-TIGON-SWITCH-MIB::agSoftwareVersion.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        When choosing the name for the methods, be aware that other new Sub
 | 
						|
        Modules might inherit this one to get it's features. Try to choose a
 | 
						|
        prefix for methods that will give it's own name space inside the
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info methods.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    %FUNCS
 | 
						|
        Contains a hash in the form ( method_name => SNMP MIB leaf name)
 | 
						|
        These are table entries, such as the "ifIndex"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        To resolve MIB leaf name conflicts between private MIBs, you may
 | 
						|
        prefix the leaf name with the MIB replacing each - (dash) and :
 | 
						|
        (colon) with an _ (underscore). For example,
 | 
						|
        ALTEON_TS_PHYSICAL_MIB__agPortCurCfgPortName would be used as the
 | 
						|
        hash value instead of the net-snmp notation
 | 
						|
        ALTEON-TS-PHYSICAL-MIB::agPortCurCfgPortName.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    %MIBS
 | 
						|
        A list of each mib needed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            ('MIB-NAME' => 'itemToTestForPresence')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        The value for each entry should be a MIB object to check for to make
 | 
						|
        sure that the MIB is present and has loaded correctly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        $info->init() will throw an exception if a MIB does not load.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    %MUNGE
 | 
						|
        A map between method calls (from %FUNCS or %GLOBALS) and subroutine
 | 
						|
        methods. The subroutine called will be passed the data as it gets it
 | 
						|
        from SNMP and it should return that same data in a more human
 | 
						|
        friendly format.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Sample %MUNGE:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         (my_ip     => \&munge_ip,
 | 
						|
          my_mac    => \&munge_mac,
 | 
						|
          my_layers => \&munge_dec2bin
 | 
						|
         )
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Sample Subclass
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Let's make a sample Layer 2 Device subclass. This class will inherit the
 | 
						|
    Cisco Vlan module as an example.

SNMP::INFO INTERNALS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Object Namespace
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Internal data is stored with bareword keys. For example $info->{debug}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    SNMP Data is stored or marked cached with keys starting with an
 | 
						|
    underscore. For example $info->{_name} is the cache for $info->name().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Cached Table data is stored in $info->store() and marked cached per
 | 
						|
    above.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Package Globals
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    These set the default value for an object upon creation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $DEBUG
 | 
						|
        Default 0. Sends copious debug info to stdout. This global sets the
 | 
						|
        object's debug status in new() unless 'Debug' argument passed in
 | 
						|
        new(). Change objects' debug status with $info->debug().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $BIGINT
 | 
						|
        Default 0. Set to true to have 64 bit counters return Math::BigInt
 | 
						|
        objects instead of scalar string values. See note under Interface
 | 
						|
        Statistics about 64 bit values.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $NOSUCH
 | 
						|
        Default 1. Set to false to disable RetryNoSuch option for
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Session. Or see method in new() to do it on an object scope.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $REPEATERS
 | 
						|
        Default 20. MaxRepeaters for BULKWALK operations. See "perldoc SNMP"
 | 
						|
        for more info. Can change by passing BulkRepeaters option in new()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

        Note: high speed interfaces (usually 1 Gbps or faster) have their
 | 
						|
        link speed in "ifHighSpeed". i_speed() automatically determines
 | 
						|
        whether to use "ifSpeed" or "ifHighSpeed"; if the latter is used,
 | 
						|
        the value is munged by munge_highspeed(). SNMP::Info can return
 | 
						|
        speeds up to terabit levels this way.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_highspeed()
 | 
						|
        Makes human friendly speed ratings for "ifHighSpeed"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_ip()
 | 
						|
        Takes a binary IP and makes it dotted ASCII
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_mac()
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
        ASCII hex string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_prio_mac()
 | 
						|
        Takes an 2-byte octet stream (HEX-STRING) and returns a colon
 | 
						|
        separated ASCII hex string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_prio_port()
 | 
						|
        Takes an 8-byte octet stream (HEX-STRING) and returns a colon

        separated ASCII hex string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_octet2hex()
 | 
						|
        Takes a binary octet stream and returns an ASCII hex string
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_dec2bin()
 | 
						|
        Takes a binary char and returns its ASCII binary representation
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_bits
 | 
						|
        Takes a SNMP2 'BITS' field and returns the ASCII bit string
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_counter64
 | 
						|
        If $BIGINT is set to true, then a Math::BigInt object is returned.
 | 
						|
        See Math::BigInt for details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_i_up
 | 
						|
        Net-SNMP tends to load "RFC1213-MIB" first, and so ignores the
 | 
						|
        updated enumeration for "ifOperStatus" in "IF-MIB". This munge
 | 
						|
        handles the "newer" definitions for the enumeration in IF-MIB.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        TODO: Get the precedence of MIBs and overriding of MIB data in
 | 
						|
        Net-SNMP figured out. Heirarchy/precendence of MIBS in SNMP::Info.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    munge_port_list
 | 
						|
        Takes an octet string representing a set of ports and returns a
 | 
						|
        reference to an array of binary values each array element
 | 
						|
        representing a port.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If the element has a value of '1', then that port is included in the
 | 
						|
        set of ports; the port is not included if it has a value of '0'.

						|
 | 
						|
  Internally Used Functions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->init()
 | 
						|
        Used internally. Loads all entries in %MIBS.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->args()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference to the argument hash supplied to SNMP::Session
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->class()
 | 
						|
        Returns the class name of the object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->error_throw(error message)
 | 
						|
        Stores the error message for use by $info->error()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If $info->debug() is true, then the error message is carped too.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->funcs()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference to the %FUNCS hash.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->globals()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference to the %GLOBALS hash.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->mibs()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference to the %MIBS hash.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->munge()
 | 
						|
        Returns a reference of the %MUNGE hash.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->nosuch()
 | 
						|
        Returns NoSuch value set or not in new()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->session()
 | 
						|
        Gets or Sets the SNMP::Session object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->store(new_store)
 | 
						|
        Returns or sets hash store for Table functions.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Store is a hash reference in this format :
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        $info->store = { attribute => { iid => value , iid2 => value2, ... }
 | 
						|
        };
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_global()
 | 
						|
        Used internally by AUTOLOAD to create dynamic methods from %GLOBALS
 | 
						|
        or a single instance MIB Leaf node name from a loaded MIB.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_set(attr,val,iid,type)
 | 
						|
        Used internally by set_multi() to run an SNMP set command. When run
 | 
						|
        clears attr cache.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Attr can be passed as either a scalar or a reference to an array or
 | 
						|
        array of arrays when used with set_multi().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Example: $info->set_name('dog',3) uses autoload to resolve to
 | 
						|
        $info->_set('name','dog',3);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_make_setter(val,iid)
 | 
						|
        Used internally by AUTOLOAD to create dynamic methods from either
 | 
						|
        %GLOBALS, %FUNCS, or a valid mib leaf from a loaded MIB which runs
 | 
						|
        an SNMP set command. When run clears the attribute cache.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Example: $info->set_name('dog',3) dispatches to autoload to resolve
 | 
						|
        to $info->_set('name','dog',3) and _make_setter creates the
 | 
						|
        set_name() method.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->set_multi(arrayref)
 | 
						|
        Used to run an SNMP set command on several new values in the one
 | 
						|
        request. Returns the result of $info->_set(method).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Pass either a reference to a 4 element array [<obj>, <iid>, <val>,
 | 
						|
        <type>] or a reference to an array of 4 element arrays to specify
 | 
						|
        multiple values.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            <obj> - One of the following forms:
 | 
						|
                1) leaf identifier (e.g., C<'sysContact'>)
 | 
						|
                2) An entry in either %FUNCS, %GLOBALS (e.g., 'contact')
 | 
						|
            <iid> - The dotted-decimal, instance identifier. For scalar MIB objects
 | 
						|
                     use '0'
 | 
						|
            <val>  - The SNMP data value being set (e.g., 'netdisco')
 | 
						|
            <type> - Optional as the MIB should be loaded.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        If one of the set assignments is invalid, then the request will be
 | 
						|
        rejected without applying any of the new values - regardless of the
 | 
						|
        order they appear in the list.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Example: my $vlan_set = [
 | 
						|
        ['qb_v_untagged',"$old_vlan_id","$old_untagged_portlist"],
 | 
						|
        ['qb_v_egress',"$new_vlan_id","$new_egress_portlist"],
 | 
						|
        ['qb_v_egress',"$old_vlan_id","$old_egress_portlist"],
 | 
						|
        ['qb_v_untagged',"$new_vlan_id","$new_untagged_portlist"],
 | 
						|
        ['qb_i_vlan',"$port","$new_vlan_id"], ];
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            $info->set_multi($vlan_set);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->load_all()
 | 
						|
        Debugging routine. This does not include any overridden method or
 | 
						|
        method implemented by subroutine.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Runs $info->load_METHOD() for each entry in $info->funcs();
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Returns $info->store() -- See store() entry.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Note return value has changed since version 0.3
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->all()
 | 
						|
        Runs $info->load_all() once then returns $info->store();
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Use $info->load_all() to reload the data.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Note return value has changed since version 0.3
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_load_attr()
 | 
						|
        Used internally by AUTOLOAD to create dynamic methods from %FUNCS or
 | 
						|
        a MIB Leaf node name contained within a table of a loaded MIB.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Supports partial table fetches and single instance table fetches.
 | 
						|
        See "Partial Table Fetches" in SNMP::Info.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        These methods return data as a reference to a hash.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_show_attr()
 | 
						|
        Used internally by AUTOLOAD to return data called by methods listed
 | 
						|
        in %FUNCS.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->snmp_connect_ip(ip)
 | 
						|
        Returns true or false based upon snmp connectivity to an IP.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    modify_port_list(portlist,offset,replacement)
 | 
						|
        Replaces the specified bit in a port_list array and returns the
 | 
						|
        packed bitmask
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_cache(attr, data)
 | 
						|
        Cache retrieved data so that if it's asked for again, we use the
 | 
						|
        cache instead of going back to Net-SNMP. Data is cached inside the
 | 
						|
        blessed hashref $self.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Accepts the leaf and value (scalar, or hashref for a table). Does
 | 
						|
        not return anything useful.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $info->_munge(attr, data)
 | 
						|
        Raw data returned from Net-SNMP might not be formatted correctly or
 | 
						|
        might have platform-specific bugs or mistakes. The MUNGE feature of
 | 
						|
        SNMP::Info allows for fixups to take place.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        Accepts the leaf and value (scalar, or hashref for a table) and
 | 
						|
        returns the raw or the munged data, as appropriate. That is, you do
 | 
						|
        not need to know whether MUNGE is installed, and it's safe to call
 | 
						|
        this method regardless.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    _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. Generated
 | 
						|
    methods are inserted into the symbol table so that subsequent calls can
 | 
						|
    avoid AUTOLOAD() and dispatch directly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    1. Returns unless method is listed in %FUNCS, %GLOBALS, or is a MIB Leaf
 | 
						|
    node name in a loaded MIB for given class.
 | 
						|
    2. If the method exists in %GLOBALS or is a single instance MIB Leaf
 | 
						|
    node name from a loaded MIB, _global() generates the method.
 | 
						|
    3. If a set_ prefix is present _make_setter() generates the method.
 | 
						|
    4. If the method exists in %FUNCS or is a MIB Leaf node name contained
 | 
						|
    within a table from a loaded MIB, _load_attr() generates the method.
 | 
						|
    5. A load_ prefix forces reloading of data and does not use cached data.
 | 
						|
    6. A _raw suffix returns data ignoring any munge routines.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Override any dynamic method listed in %GLOBALS, %FUNCS, or MIB Leaf node
 | 
						|
    name a by creating a subroutine with the same name.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    For example to override $info->name() create `` sub name {...}'' in your
 | 
						|
    subclass.
