SNMP::...HWGroup(3pm)

πŸŽ€ SNMP::...HWGroup(3pm)

okay bestie, so this lil page is SNMP::...HWGroup(3pm) β€” it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of your man pages, and it's literally about SNMP::Info::Layer7::HWGroup. let's get into it πŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

SNMP::Info::Layer7::HWGroup β€” an SNMP interface to HW Group devices. that's the whole vibe. πŸ¦‹


πŸ’œ AUTHOR πŸ’œ

Netdisco Developers β€” legends, honestly. πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole thing, copy-paste ready, no notes:

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

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

translating: you let SNMP::Info do the detective work for you, and if it can't hit up DestHost it literally dies with Can't connect to DestHost.\n. then you ask it class() and it tells you which subclass your device falls under. main character energy tbh ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

This gives you an abstraction to all the info you can pull off an HW Group device through SNMP. as for the rest? see the inherited classes' documentation for the inherited methods β€” we don't duplicate, we delegate. πŸ’…

πŸ‘‘ GLOBALS πŸ‘‘

These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP. cute, simple, scalar. πŸ“

and okay, here's the part that's literally in the page β€” the overrides, comments and all, exactly as written:

#=head2 Overrides
#
#=over
#
#=item $hwgroup->vendor()
#
#Returns 'hwgroup'
#
#=item $hwgroup->os()
#
#Returns 'hwgroup'
#
#=item $hwgroup->os_ver()
#
#("lgpAgentDeviceFirmwareVersion.1")
#
#=item $hwgroup->model()
#
#("lgpAgentDeviceModel.1")
#
#=item $hwgroup->serial()
#
#("lgpAgentDeviceSerialNumber.1")
#
#=back

so: vendor() gives you 'hwgroup', os() gives you 'hwgroup', os_ver() pulls ("lgpAgentDeviceFirmwareVersion.1"), model() pulls ("lgpAgentDeviceModel.1"), and serial() pulls ("lgpAgentDeviceSerialNumber.1"). periodt. πŸ’…
