SYNOPSIS

        # Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
        my $c6500 = new SNMP::Info(
                               AutoSpecify => 1,
                               Debug       => 1,
                               # These arguments are passed directly 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 characteristics as the Catalyst WS-C
       family (5xxx). For example, forwarding tables are held in VLANs, and extended interface
       information is gleaned 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(...);

GLOBALS

       These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP

       $c6500->vendor()
               Returns 'cisco'

       $c6500->cvsSwitchMode()
           Returns the Switch status: multiNode or standalone.

       $c6500->is_virtual_switch()
           Return 1 if the switch ("cvsSwitchMode") is in multimode (VSS).

       $c6500->serial()
           Returns serial number of unit (falls back to "entPhysicalSerialNum").

TABLE METHODS

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

   Overrides
       $c6500->i_duplex()
           Returns reference to hash of iid to current link duplex setting.

           Newer software versions return duplex based upon the result of $c6500->el_duplex().
           Otherwise it uses the result of the call to CiscoStack::i_duplex().

           See SNMP::Info::Etherlike for el_duplex() method and SNMP::Info::CiscoStack for its
           i_duplex() method.

       $c6500->i_duplex_admin()
           Returns reference to hash of iid to administrative duplex setting.

           Newer software versions return duplex based upon the result of $c6500->p_duplex().
           Otherwise it uses the result of the call to CiscoStack::i_duplex().

           See SNMP::Info::CiscoStack for its i_duplex() and p_duplex() methods.

       $c6500->set_i_duplex_admin(duplex, ifIndex)
           Sets port duplex, must be supplied with duplex and port "ifIndex".

           Speed choices are 'auto', 'half', 'full'.

           Crosses $c6500->p_port() with $c6500->p_duplex() to utilize port "ifIndex".

               Example:
               my %if_map = reverse %{$c6500->interfaces()};
               $c6500->set_i_duplex_admin('auto', $if_map{'FastEthernet0/1'})
                   or die "Couldn't change port duplex. ",$c6500->error(1);

       $c6500->set_i_speed_admin(speed, ifIndex)
           Sets port speed, must be supplied with speed and port "ifIndex".

           Speed choices are '10', '100', '1000'.

           Crosses $c6500->p_port() with $c6500->p_speed() to utilize port "ifIndex".
