NAME

Net::SNMP::Mixin::NXOSDot1qFdb - mixin class for 802.1-Q switch forwarding databases

SYNOPSIS

  use Net::SNMP;
  use Net::SNMP::Mixin;

  my $session = Net::SNMP->session( -hostname => 'foo.bar.com' );
  $session->mixer('Net::SNMP::Mixin::NXOSDot1qFdb');
  $session->init_mixins();
  snmp_dispatcher()   if $session->nonblocking;
  $session->init_ok();
  die $session->errors if $session->errors;

  foreach my $fdb_entry ( $session->get_dot1q_fdb_entries() ) {
    my $mac     = $fdb_entry->{MacAddress};
    my $vlan_id = $fdb_entry->{vlanId};
    my $port    = $fdb_entry->{dot1dBasePort};
    my $status  = $fdb_entry->{fdbStatus};

    print "$mac, $vlan_id, $port, $status\n";
  }

DESCRIPTION

A Net::SNMP mixin class for forwarding database info of NXOS 802.1-Q limited MIBs.

MIXIN METHODS

@fdb = OBJ->get_dot1q_fdb_entries()

Returns a list of fdb entries. Every list element is a reference to a hash with the following fields and values:

    {
      MacAddress      => 'XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX',
      dot1dBasePort   => Integer,
      vlanId          => Integer,
      fdbStatus       => Integer,
      fdbStatusString => String,
    }
MacAddress

MacAddress received, in normalized IEEE form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.

dot1dBasePort

The receiving bride-port for the MAC address.

vlanId

Every MacAdress is related to a distinct vlanId.

fdbStatus

The status of this entry. The meanings of the values are:

    1 = other
    2 = invalid
    3 = learned
    4 = self
    5 = mgmt

For more information please see the corresponding Q-BRIDGE-MIB.

fdbStatusString

The status of this entry in string form, see above.

INITIALIZATION

OBJ->_init($reload)

Fetch the fdb related snmp values from the host. Don't call this method direct!

PRIVATE METHODS

Only for developers or maintainers.

_fetch_dot1q_tp_fdb_table()

Fetch the forwarding databases from the dot1qTpFdbTable once during object initialization.
