NAME

SNMP::OID::Translate

VERSION

version 0.0005

SYNOPSIS

use SNMP::OID::Translate;
my $oid = $SNMP::OID::Translate:::translateObj('ifDescr');

VARIABLES

$use_long_names

Returns the complete name rather than the short version. Most of the time you don't need or want this.

$best_guess

Setting this to 1 will enable regex lookups for names, so things like 'if.*Status' work. With this turned on you can't append the instance or use a period in the query because it treats it as regex.

Setting this to 2 turns on "random access". I'm not sure what that does. See the snmpcmd manpage for -Ib (regex) and -IR (random access)

Defaults to 0.

$verbose

Enable verbose messages. Defaults to false.

$auto_init_mib

enable automatic MIB loading at session creation time. Defaults to true.

SUBROUTINES

translateObj

my $oid = translateObj('ifDescr');

Translate object identifier(tag or numeric) into alternate representation (i.e., sysDescr => '.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1' and '.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1' => sysDescr) when $SNMP::OID::Translate::use_long_names or second arg is non-zero the translation will return longer textual identifiers (e.g., system.sysDescr). An optional third argument of non-zero will cause the module name to be prepended to the text name (e.g. 'SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr'). If no Mib is loaded when called and $SNMP::OID::Translate::auto_init_mib is enabled then the Mib will be loaded. Will return 'undef' upon failure.

translate

my $result = translate([ 'ifDescr', 'ifInOctets' ]);

This will translate an arrayref or list of objects into their OIDs or translate OIDs into their names. Returns an arrayref.
