SYNOPSIS

 # Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you. 
 my $c6500 = 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      = $c6500->class();
 print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

DESCRIPTION

Abstraction subclass for Cisco Catalyst 6500 Layer 2/3 Switches.

These devices run IOS but have some of the same charactersitics as the Catalyst WS-C family (5xxx). For example, forwarding tables are held in VLANs, and extened interface information is gleened from CISCO-SWITCH-MIB.

For speed or debugging purposes you can call the subclass directly, but not after determining a more specific class using the method above.

 my $c6500 = new SNMP::Info::Layer3::C6500(...);
