💖 SNMP::Info::Layer2::Hirschmann 💖

okay bestie, welcome to SNMP::Info::Layer2::Hirschmann — the SNMP Interface to L2 Hirschmann Switches, living in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of your system. it's a .3pm page, it's giving perl module, and it's here to help you talk to Hirschmann Layer 2 switches. no cap 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe: you let SNMP::Info figure out the right subclass for you, periodt.

# Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
my $router = new SNMP::Info(
                         AutoSpecify => 1,
                         Debug       => 1,
                         DestHost    => 'myrouter',
                         Community   => 'public',
                         Version     => 2
                       )
   or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";

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

then you ask it what class it decided on, and it tells you. iconic behavior honestly 👑

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

it's a subclass for Hirschmann L2 devices. that's the whole job and it does it slayfully 💅

🌈 Inherited Classes 🌈

these are the classes it inherits from, the ancestors, the lineage, the family tree:

• SNMP::Info::Layer2
• SNMP::Info::CDP

📚 Required MIBs 📚

you're gonna need these loaded, no skipping:

• HMPRIV-MGMT-SNMP-MIB
  • Inherited Classes — the MIBs required by the inherited classes listed above. so like, go look at those too, iykyk.

---

👑 GLOBALS 👑

these are methods that return scalar values straight from SNMP — one value, no table nonsense, just a nice lil answer ✨

💅 Overrides 💅

• $device->vendor() — returns 'hirschmann'. that's it. that's the whole answer. fr fr.
• $device->os() — returns 'hirschmann'. twin behavior with vendor, we love consistency 🫶
• $device->os_ver() — returns the os version.
• $device->mac() — returns the Interface MAC address of the switch (on the CPU pseudo interface). lowkey specific but we roll with it.
• $device->model() — returns the device model, extracted from the description. detective work, but make it network engineering 🔍
• $device->serial() — returns the serial number.

🧚 TABLE METHODS 🧚

these ones don't hand you a single value — they return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash. so much data, so organized, so main character 🌸

see documentation in "TABLE METHODS" in SNMP::Info::Layer2 for details. again: the lore lives in Layer2, go get it 💖
