💖 SNMP::...respace(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for SNMP::...respace — that's a 3pm page, part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and it's literally all about talking to Cisco (Airespace) Wireless Controllers over SNMP. pull up a chair 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

here's the vibe, no cap:

#Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.

my $airespace = new SNMP::Info(
                      AutoSpecify => 1,
                      Debug       => 1,
                      DestHost    => 'myswitch',
                      Community   => 'public',
                      Version     => 2
                    )

or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";

my $class = $airespace->class();
print " Using device sub class : $class\n";

like… it just works (when it works). if it can't connect, die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n" and honestly same 😭

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

she provides abstraction to the configuration information you can get out of Cisco (Airespace) Wireless Controllers through SNMP. that's the whole point, periodt ✨

🧚 Inherited Classes

your girl didn't come from nowhere, she's got lineage:

• SNMP::Info::Airespace
• SNMP::Info::CDP
• SNMP::Info::Bridge

📚 Required MIBs

these MIBs are non-negotiable, bestie, she needs them:

• CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-MIB
• CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-MIB
• CISCO-LWAPP-AP-MIB

🌟 Inherited Classes' MIBs

the ancestors have their own snack requirements too:

• See "Required MIBs" in SNMP::Info::Airespace for its own MIB requirements.
• See "Required MIBs" in SNMP::Info::CDP for its own MIB requirements.
• See "Required MIBs" in SNMP::Info::Bridge for its own MIB requirements.

💅 GLOBALS 💅

these are methods that return a scalar value from SNMP. one value, one vibe, no drama:

• $airespace->vendor() — Returns 'cisco'
• $airespace->os() — Returns 'cisco'
• $airespace->model() — ("agentInventoryMachineModel")

🔥 TABLE METHODS 🔥

these are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash. it's giving data buffet 🍓

• cd11_mac() — Returns client radio interface MAC addresses.
• cd11_txrate() — Returns client transmission speed in Mbs.

💜 Overrides

• i_mac() — Adds AP Ethernet MAC as port mac on radio ports from "CISCO-LWAPP-AP-MIB". she's not like the other methods, she customizes 💅

🧚 Data Munging Callback Subroutines 🧚

tiny little helpers doing the most, and honestly? obsessed 😭

• munge_cd11n_ch_bw() — Converts 802.11n channel bandwidth to either 20 or 40.
• munge_cd11_proto() — Converts 802.11n 2.4Ghz to 1 and 5Ghz to 2 to correspond to the ("cldHtMacOperationsTable") index.
• munge_cd11_rateset() — Converts rate set to array.
