                            Debug       => 1,

DESCRIPTION

BRIDGE-MIB is used by most Layer 2 devices, and holds information like the MAC Forwarding Table and Spanning Tree Protocol info.

Q-BRIDGE-MIB holds 802.1q information -- VLANs and Trunking. Cisco tends not to use this MIB, but some proprietary ones. HP and some nicer vendors use this. This is from RFC2674_q.

Create or use a subclass of SNMP::Info that inherits this class. Do not use directly.

For debugging you can call new() directly as you would in SNMP::Info

my $bridge = new SNMP::Info::Bridge(...);

Inherited Classes

None.

Required MIBs

BRIDGE-MIB
Q-BRIDGE-MIB

BRIDGE-MIB needs to be extracted from ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/v1/v1.tar.gz

TABLE METHODS

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

$bridge->i_vlan()

Returns a mapping between ifIndex and the PVID or default VLAN.

$vtp->i_untagged()

An alias for i_vlan.

$bridge->i_vlan_membership()

Returns reference to hash of arrays: key = ifIndex, value = array of VLAN IDs. These are the VLANs which are members of the egress list for the port.

Example:
my $interfaces = $bridge->interfaces();
my $vlans      = $bridge->i_vlan_membership();

foreach my $iid (sort keys %$interfaces) {
  my $port = $interfaces->{$iid};
  my $vlan = join(',', sort(@{$vlans->{$iid}}));
  print "Port: $port VLAN: $vlan\n";
}
$bridge->i_vlan_membership_untagged()

Returns reference to hash of arrays: key = ifIndex, value = array of VLAN IDs. These are the VLANs which are members of the untagged egress list for the port.

$bridge->qb_i_vlan_t()

Returns reference to hash: key = dot1dBasePort, value = either 'trunk' for tagged ports or the VLAN ID.

(dot1dBasePortCircuit)

Spanning Tree Instance Globals

These are not part of a table, but return a hash reference to ease API compatibility with MST and PVST implementations indexed by a spanning tree instance id.

$bridge->stp_i_time()

(dot1dStpPort)

$bridge->stp_p_priority()

"The value of the priority field which is contained in the first (in network byte order) octet of the (2 octet long) Port ID. The other octet of the Port ID is given by the value of dot1dStpPort."

(dot1dStpPortPriority)

$bridge->stp_p_state()

"The port's current state as defined by application of the Spanning Tree Protocol. This state controls what action a port takes on reception of a frame. If the bridge has detected a port that is malfunctioning it will place that port into the broken(6) state. For ports which are disabled (see dot1dStpPortEnable), this object will have a value of disabled(1)."
