DESCRIPTION

       SNMP::Info::EDP is a subclass of SNMP::Info that provides an object oriented interface to
       EDP information through SNMP.

       EDP is a Layer 2 protocol that allows a network device to advertise its identity and
       capabilities on the local network providing topology information.

       Create or use a device subclass that inherits this class.  Do not use directly.

   Inherited Classes
       None.

   Required MIBs
       EXTREME-EDP-MIB

GLOBALS

       These are methods that return scalar values from SNMP

       $edp->hasEDP()
           Is EDP active on this device?

TABLE METHODS

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

       $edp->edp_id()
           Returns the string value used to identify the chassis component associated with the
           remote system.

           ("extremeEdpNeighborName")

       $edp->edp_if()
           Returns the mapping to the SNMP Interface Table.

       $edp->edp_ip()
           Returns remote IPv4 address.

       $edp->edp_port()
           Returns remote port ID

       $edp->edp_ver()
           Returns the operating system version of the remote system.

           Nulls are removed before the value is returned.
