okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the internet, and specifically to SNMP::...rtinet(3pm) — yes that's really the page name, and yes we're doing this together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

SNMP::Info::Layer3::Fortinet — an SNMP Interface to Fortinet network devices. that's it, that's the whole name section, slay 💅

(yes, one legend, holding up an entire Fortinet module, we love to see it 🌈)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole vibe, copy it exactly bestie, character for character, no cap:

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

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

the or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n"; is doing so much emotional labor fr fr 😭

⭐ GLOBALS ⭐

These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP. little single-value besties 🎀

• $fortinet->vendor() — Returns 'fortinet'.
• $fortinet->model() — Returns the chassis model.
• $fortinet->os() — Returns 'fortios'.
• $fortinet->os_ver() — Returns the software version extracted from the Fortinet MIB, and the order it checks them in is literally this:

("fgSysVersion") ("fmSysVersion") ("facSysVersion")

• $fortinet->serial() — Returns the chassis serial number.

("fnSysSerial")

🫶 Globals imported from SNMP::Info::Layer3

See documentation in "GLOBALS" in SNMP::Info::Layer3 for details.

💅 TABLE METHODS 💅

These are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash. not just one cute little value — a whole hash ref, iconic 👑

• $fortinet->interfaces(); — Returns the map between SNMP Interface Identifier (iid) and "ifName".
• "agg_ports" — Returns a HASH reference mapping from slave to master port for each member of a port bundle on the device. Keys are ifIndex of the slave ports, Values are ifIndex of the corresponding master ports.

bestie reminder: <pink>xyz</pink> 😌 — that's this page, that's the whole thing, and every method you inherit needs the docs from its own page, so go read those too 🙈
