SNMP::...Allied(3pm)

✨ SNMP::Info::Layer2::Allied 💅

okay bestie, this is the SNMP::...Allied(3pm) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally the whole vibe for talking to Allied Telesis switches over SNMP. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS

okay so here's how you actually use her. you let SNMP::Info do the matchmaking and figure out the correct subclass for you, no cap:

# Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
my $allied = new SNMP::Info(
                         AutoSpecify => 1,
                         Debug       => 1,
                         DestHost    => 'myhub',
                         Community   => 'public',
                         Version     => 1
                       )
   or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";

my $class = $allied->class();
print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

lowkey the coolest part is that last bit — she tells you which subclass you landed in. main character behavior fr fr 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION

She provides abstraction to the configuration information you can get off an Allied device through SNMP. anything she inherited? check the inherited classes' docs for those inherited methods, bestie.

🎀 Inherited Classes

• SNMP::Info::Layer2

🎀 Required MIBs

• AtiSwitch-MIB
• AtiStackInfo-MIB
  • go download it for your specific device from ftp://ftp.allied-telesyn.com/pub/switches/mibs/ — yes it's an ftp link, we don't make the rules 🙈

🎀 Inherited MIBs

For the MIB requirements she inherited, see "Required MIBs" in SNMP::Info::Layer2.

⭐ GLOBALS

These are methods that return scalar values straight from SNMP. little snack-sized values, obsessed.

🌈 Overrides

• $allied->vendor() — returns 'allied'
• $allied->os() — returns 'allied'
• $allied->os_ver() — culls the Version out of description()
• $allied->root_ip() — returns the IP Address of the Managed Device, from "actualIpAddr"
• $allied->model() — tries to cull out "AT-nnnnX" out of the description field
• $allied->mac() — returns the device MAC

See "GLOBALS" in SNMP::Info::Layer2 for details.

💜 TABLE METHODS

🍓 Overrides

• $allied->i_up() — returns a reference to a map of IIDs to link status. she changes the values of ati_up() to 'up' and 'down'. no ambiguity, periodt.
