NAME

6       Mon::SNMP - decode SNMP trap
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Mon::SNMP;
10
11           $trap = new Mon::SNMP;
12
13           $trap->buffer($snmptrap);
14
15           %traphash = $trap->decode;
16
17           $error = $trap->error;

DESCRIPTION

20       Mon::SNMP provides methods to decode SNMP trap PDUs. It is based on
21       Graham Barr's Convert::BER module, and its purpose is to provide SNMP
22       trap handling to "mon".
23

METHODS

25       new creates a new Mon::SNMP object.
26
27       buffer ( buffer )
28           Assigns a raw SNMP trap message to the object.
29
30       decode
31           Decodes a SNMP trap message, and returns a hash of the variable
32           assignments for the SNMP header and trap protocol data unit of the
33           associated message. The hash consists of the following members:
34
35                   version         =>      SNMP version (1)
36                   community       =>      community string
37                   ent_OID         =>      enterprise OID of originating agent
38                   agentaddr       =>      IP address of originating agent
39                   generic_trap    =>      /COLDSTART|WARMSTART|LINKDOWN|LINKUP|AUTHFAIL|EGPNEIGHBORLOSS|ENTERPRISESPECIFIC/
40                   specific_trap   =>      specific trap type (integer)
41                   timeticks       =>      timeticks (integer)
42                   varbindlist     =>      { oid1 => value, oid2 => value, ... }
43

ERRORS

45       All methods return a hash with no elements upon errors which they
46       detect, and the detail of the error is available from the
47

EXAMPLES

49           use Mon::SNMP;
50
51           $trap = new Mon::SNMP;
52
53           $trap->buffer($snmptrap);
54
55           %traphash = $trap->decode;
56
57           foreach $oid (keys $traphash{"varbindlist"}) {
58               $val = $traphash{"varbindlist"}{$oid};
59               print "oid($oid) = val($val)\n";
60           }
