INSTALL

1.1 Prerequisites

Net::Telnet::Cisco relies on and extends Net::Telnet.

        CPAN and PPM will both automatically detect and install
        this module for you.

        + Net::Telnet 3.02

1.2 Make and install

1.2.1 UNIX

1.2.1.1 CPAN Install

1. Run the CPAN shell from your command-line:

$ perl -MCPAN -e shell

                2. If this is your first time running CPAN, it will ask
                you a number of setup questions.

                3. Install the module:

                        cpan> install Net::Telnet::Cisco

        1.2.1.2 Manual Install

                Failing those, download the module and install by hand:

                        $ perl Makefile.PL [--prefix=...]
                        $ make
                        $ make test
                        $ make install

1.2.2 Windows

        There are two ways to install Net::Telnet::Cisco on a Windows
        machine: 

        1.2.2.1 Install with PPM3, the ActiveState Perl Package Manager

                1. run PPM3

                2. type "rep add NTC http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/nettelnetcisco/"
                (without the quotes)

                3. type "install Net::Telnet::Cisco".
                
                For more information, read the PPM FAQ:
                http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/ActivePerl/faq/ActivePerl-faq2.html

        1.2.2.2 Install with PPM, v2, the older version

                1. run PPM.

                2. type "set repository NTC http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/nettelnetcisco/"
                (without the quotes)

                3. type "install Net::Telnet::Cisco".

        1.2.2.2 Install with CPAN

                Windows needs an additional program called "nmake" to
                install modules with CPAN. 

                1. Get and install nmake from 
                ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/nmake15.exe

                2. Run CPAN from a DOS prompt:

                        C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP> perl -MCPAN -e shell

                3. If this is your first time running CPAN, it will ask
                you a number of setup questions. When it asks you for
                the location of 'make', give it the path to 'nmake'.

                4. install Net::Telnet::Cisco from CPAN:

                        cpan> install Net::Telnet::Cisco

1.2.3 MacOS

1. If you have MacOS X, you can run the CPAN program from a Terminal:

perl -MCPAN -e shell

        2. If this is your first time running CPAN, it will ask
        you a number of setup questions.

        3. Install the module:

                cpan> install Net::Telnet::Cisco
