Net::SNMP::Mixin::System - mixin class for the mib-2 system-group values

Version 0.12

A Net::SNMP mixin class for mib-II system-group info. It's just in the distribution to act as a blueprint for mixin authors.

  use Net::SNMP;
  use Net::SNMP::Mixin qw/mixer init_mixins/;

  my $session = Net::SNMP->session( -hostname => 'foo.bar.com' );

  $session->mixer('Net::SNMP::Mixin::System');
  $session->init_mixins;
  snmp_dispatcher() if $session->nonblocking;

  die $session->error if $session->error;

  my $system_group = $session->get_system_group;

  printf "Name: %s, Contact: %s, Location: %s\n",
    $system_group->{sysName},
    $system_group->{sysContact},
    $system_group->{sysLocation};

Returns the mib-II system-group as a hash reference:

  {
    sysDescr        => DisplayString,
    sysObjectID     => OBJECT_IDENTIFIER,
    sysUpTime       => TimeTicks,
    sysContact      => DisplayString,
    sysName         => DisplayString,
    sysLocation     => DisplayString,
    sysServices     => INTEGER,
  }

Fetch the SNMP mib-II system-group values from the host. Don't call this method direct! Returns nothing in case of failure so init_mixins can stop initialization.

Only for developers or maintainers.

Fetch values from the system-group once during object initialization. Push error message onto the error buffer in case of failure and returns nothing.

The callback for _fetch_system_group. Push error message onto the error buffer in case of failure and returns nothing.

There are no known bugs at the time of this release. However, if you spot a bug or are experiencing difficulties that are not explained within the POD documentation, please submit a bug to the RT system (see link below). However, it would help greatly if you are able to pinpoint problems or even supply a patch.

Fixes are dependant upon their severity and my availablity. Should a fix not be forthcoming, please feel free to (politely) remind me by sending an email to gaissmai@cpan.org .
