SYNOPSIS

# Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
my $stack = new SNMP::Info(
AutoSpecify => 1,
Debug => 1,
# These arguments are passed directly on to SNMP::Session
DestHost => 'myswitch',
Community => 'public',
Version => 2
)
or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";
my $class = $stack->class();
print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

DESCRIPTION

SNMP::Info::NortelStack is a subclass of SNMP::Info that provides an interface to S5-AGENT-MIB and S5-CHASSIS-MIB. These MIBs are used across the Avaya/Nortel Stackable Ethernet Switches (BayStack), as well as, older Nortel devices such as the Centillion family of ATM switches.

Use or create in a subclass of SNMP::Info. Do not use directly.

Inherited Classes

None.

Required MIBs

S5-AGENT-MIB
S5-CHASSIS-MIB
S5-ROOT-MIB and S5-TCS-MIB are required by the other MIBs.

GLOBAL METHODS

These are methods that return scalar values from SNMP

$stack->os_ver(): Returns the software version extracted from ("s5AgInfoVer")

("s5ChasGblConfChngs")
$stack->ns_cfg_time(): Returns the value of "sysUpTime" when the last configuration change (other than attachment changes, or physical additions or removals) in the chassis was detected.
("s5ChasGblConfLstChng")

TABLE METHODS

These are methods that return tables of information in the form of a reference to a hash.

Agent Interface Table (s5AgMyIfTable)

$stack->i_cfg_file(): Returns reference to hash. Key: Table entry, Value: Name of the file
("s5AgMyIfCfgFname")

("s5ChasStoreCntntVer")

Pseudo ENTITY-MIB information

These methods emulate ENTITY-MIB Physical Table methods using S5-CHASSIS-MIB.

$stack->ns_e_index(): Returns reference to hash. Key: IID, Value: Integer, Indices are combined into a six digit integer, each index is two digits padded with leading zero if required.
$stack->ns_e_class(): Returns reference to hash. Key: IID, Value: General hardware type ("s5ChasGrpDescr").
Group is stripped from the string. Values may be Supervisory Module, Back Plane, Board, Power Supply, Sensor, Fan, Clock, Unit.

$stack->ns_e_parent(): Returns reference to hash. Key: IID, Value: The value of ns_e_index() for the entity which 'contains' this entity. A value of zero indicates this entity
is not contained in any other entity.

Data Munging Callback Subroutines

$stack->munge_ns_grp_type(): Munges "s5ChasGrpType" into an "ENTITY-MIB PhysicalClass" equivalent.
