=head1 NAME

Net::SNMP - Object oriented interface to SNMP

=head1 SYNOPSIS

The Net::SNMP module implements an object oriented interface to the Simple 
Network Management Protocol.  Perl applications can use the module to retrieve 
or update information on a remote host using the SNMP protocol.  The module 
supports SNMP version-1, SNMP version-2c (Community-Based SNMPv2), and SNMP 
version-3. The Net::SNMP module assumes that the user has a basic understanding
of the Simple Network Management Protocol and related network management 
concepts.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Net::SNMP module abstracts the intricate details of the Simple Network
Management Protocol by providing a high level programming interface to the
protocol.  Each Net::SNMP object provides a one-to-one mapping between a Perl
object and a remote SNMP agent or manager.  Once an object is created, it can
be used to perform the basic protocol exchange actions defined by SNMP.

A Net::SNMP object can be created such that it has either "blocking" or
"non-blocking" properties.  By default, the methods used to send SNMP messages
do not return until the protocol exchange has completed successfully or a
timeout period has expired. This behavior gives the object a "blocking"
property because the flow of the code is stopped until the method returns.

The optional named argument B<-nonblocking> can be passed to the object
constructor with a true value to give the object "non-blocking" behavior.
A method invoked by a non-blocking object queues the SNMP message and returns
immediately, allowing the flow of the code to continue. The queued SNMP 
messages are not sent until an event loop is entered by calling the 
C<snmp_dispatcher()> method.  When the SNMP messages are sent, any response to 
the messages invokes the subroutine defined by the user when the message was 
originally queued. The event loop exits when all messages have been removed 
from the queue by either receiving a response, or by exceeding the number of 
retries at the Transport Layer.

=head2 Blocking Objects

The default behavior of the methods associated with a Net::SNMP object is to
block the code flow until the method completes.  For methods that initiate a
SNMP protocol exchange requiring a response, a hash reference containing the
results of the query is returned. The undefined value is returned by all
methods when a failure has occurred. The C<error()> method can be used to
determine the cause of the failure.

The hash reference returned by a SNMP protocol exchange points to a hash
constructed from the VarBindList contained in the SNMP response message.  The
hash is created using the ObjectName and the ObjectSyntax pairs in the
VarBindList.  The keys of the hash consist of the OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in dotted
notation corresponding to each ObjectName in the VarBindList.  The value of
each hash entry is set equal to the value of the corresponding ObjectSyntax.
This hash reference can also be retrieved using the C<var_bind_list()> method.

=head2 Non-blocking Objects

When a Net::SNMP object is created having non-blocking behavior, the invocation
of a method associated with the object returns immediately, allowing the flow 
of the code to continue.  When a method is invoked that would initiate a SNMP
protocol exchange requiring a response, either a true value (i.e. 0x1) is
returned immediately or the undefined value is returned if there was a failure.
The C<error()> method can be used to determine the cause of the failure.

The contents of the VarBindList contained in the SNMP response message can be
retrieved by calling the C<var_bind_list()> method using the object reference
passed as the first argument to the callback.  The value returned by the 
C<var_bind_list()> method is a hash reference created using the ObjectName and
the ObjectSyntax pairs in the VarBindList.  The keys of the hash consist of 
the OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in dotted notation corresponding to each ObjectName 
in the VarBindList.  The value of each hash entry is set equal to the value of
the corresponding ObjectSyntax. The undefined value is returned if there has 
been a failure and the C<error()> method may be used to determine the reason.

=head1 METHODS

When named arguments are expected by the methods, two different styles are 
supported.  All examples in this documentation use the dashed-option style:

$object->method(-argument => $value);

However, the IO:: style is also allowed:

$object->method(Argument => $value);

=over

=item Non-blocking Objects Arguments

When a Net::SNMP object has been created with a "non-blocking" property, most
methods that generate a SNMP message take additional arguments to support this
property.

=over

=item Callback

Most methods associated with a non-blocking object have an optional named
argument called B<-callback>.  The B<-callback> argument expects a reference
to a subroutine or to an array whose first element must be a reference to a
subroutine.  The subroutine defined by the B<-callback> option is executed when
a response to a SNMP message is received, an error condition has occurred, or
the number of retries for the message has been exceeded.

When the B<-callback> argument only contains a subroutine reference, the
subroutine is evaluated passing a reference to the original Net::SNMP object 
as the only parameter.  If the B<-callback> argument was defined as an array
reference, all elements in the array are passed to subroutine after the
reference to the Net::SNMP object.  The first element, which is required to be
a reference to a subroutine, is removed before the remaining arguments are 
passed to that subroutine.

Once one method is invoked with the B<-callback> argument, this argument stays
with the object and is used by any further calls to methods using the
B<-callback> option if the argument is absent.  The undefined value may be
passed to the B<-callback> argument to delete the callback.

B<NOTE:> The subroutine being passed with the B<-callback> named argument
should not cause blocking itself.  This will cause all the actions in the event
loop to be stopped, defeating the non-blocking property of the Net::SNMP
module.

=item Delay

An optional argument B<-delay> can also be passed to non-blocking objects.  The
B<-delay> argument instructs the object to wait the number of seconds passed
to the argument before executing the SNMP protocol exchange.  The delay period 
starts when the event loop is entered.  The B<-delay> parameter is applied to 
all methods associated with the object once it is specified.  The delay value 
must be set back to 0 seconds to disable the delay parameter.

=back

=item SNMPv3 Arguments

A SNMP context is a collection of management information accessible by a SNMP 
entity.  An item of management information may exist in more than one context 
and a SNMP entity potentially has access to many contexts.  The combination of 
a contextEngineID and a contextName unambiguously identifies a context within 
an administrative domain.  In a SNMPv3 message, the contextEngineID and 
contextName are included as part of the scopedPDU.  All methods that generate 
a SNMP message optionally take a B<-contextengineid> and B<-contextname> 
argument to configure these fields.

=over

=item Context Engine ID

The B<-contextengineid> argument expects a hexadecimal string representing
the desired contextEngineID.  The string must be 10 to 64 characters (5 to 
32 octets) long and can be prefixed with an optional "0x".  Once the 
B<-contextengineid> is specified it stays with the object until it is changed 
again or reset to default by passing in the undefined value.  By default, the 
contextEngineID is set to match the authoritativeEngineID of the authoritative
SNMP engine.

=item Context Name

The contextName is passed as a string which must be 0 to 32 octets in length 
using the B<-contextname> argument.  The contextName stays with the object 
until it is changed.  The contextName defaults to an empty string which 
represents the "default" context.

This is the constructor for Net::SNMP objects.  In scalar context, a
reference to a new Net::SNMP object is returned if the creation of the object
is successful.  In list context, a reference to a new Net::SNMP object and an 
empty error message string is returned.  If a failure occurs, the object 
reference is returned as the undefined value.  The error string may be used 
to determine the cause of the error.

Most of the named arguments passed to the constructor define basic attributes
for the object and are not modifiable after the object has been created.  The
B<-timeout>, B<-retries>, B<-maxmsgsize>, B<-translate>, and B<-debug>
arguments are modifiable using an accessor method.  See their corresponding 
method definitions for a complete description of their usage, default values, 
and valid ranges.

=over

=item Transport Domain Arguments

The Net::SNMP module uses UDP/IPv4 as the default Transport Domain to exchange
SNMP messages between the local and remote devices.  The module also supports
UDP/IPv6, TCP/IPv4, and TCP/IPv6 as alternative Transport Domains.  The 
B<-domain> argument can be used to change the Transport Domain by setting the 
value to one of the following strings: 'udp6', 'udp/ipv6'; 'tcp', 'tcp4', 
'tcp/ipv4'; 'tcp6', or 'tcp/ipv6'.  The B<-domain> argument also accepts
the strings 'udp', 'udp4', or 'udp/ipv4' which correspond to the default
Transport Domain of UDP/IPv4.

The transport address of the destination SNMP device can be specified using
the B<-hostname> argument.  This argument is optional and defaults to
"localhost".  The destination port number can be specified as part of the
transport address or by using the B<-port> argument.  Either a numeric port
number or a textual service name can be specified.  A numeric port number in
parentheses can optionally follow the service name.  This port number will
be used if the service name cannot be resolved.  If the destination port number
is not specified, the well-known SNMP port number 161 is used.

By default the source transport address and port number are assigned 
dynamically by the local device on which the Net::SNMP module is being used.
This dynamic assignment can be overridden by using the B<-localaddr> and
B<-localport> arguments.  These arguments accept the same values as the
B<-hostname> and B<-port> arguments respectively.  The resolved address must
correspond to a valid address of an interface on the local device.

When using an IPv4 Transport Domain, the transport address can be specified
as either an IP network hostname or an IPv4 address in standard dotted notation.
The port information can be optionally appended to the hostname or address
delimited by a colon.  The accepted IPv4 transport address formats are 
C<address>, C<address:port>, C<hostname>, and C<hostname:port>.

When using an IPv6 Transport Domain, the transport address can be specified
as an IP hostname (which will be looked up as a DNS quad-A record) or an IPv6
address in presentation format.  The port information can optionally be 
included following a colon after the hostname or address.  When including this
information after an IPv6 address, the address must be enclosed in square 
brackets.  The scope zone index (described in RFC 4007) can be specified after
the address as a decimal value delimited by a percent sign.  The accepted
transport address formats for IPv6 are C<address>, C<address%zone>,
C<[address]:port>, C<[address%zone]:port>, C<hostname>, and C<hostname:port>.

=item Security Model Arguments

The B<-version> argument controls which other arguments are expected or 
required by the C<session()> constructor.  The Net::SNMP module supports 
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3.  The module defaults to SNMPv1 if no B<-version>
argument is specified.  The B<-version> argument expects either a digit (i.e. 
'1', '2', or '3') or a string specifying the version (i.e. 'snmpv1', 
'snmpv2c', or 'snmpv3') to define the SNMP version.

The Security Model used by the Net::SNMP object is based on the SNMP version
associated with the object.  If the SNMP version is SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c a
Community-based Security Model will be used, while the User-based Security
Model (USM) will be used if the version is SNMPv3.

=over

=item Community-based Security Model Argument

If the Security Model is Community-based, the only argument available is the
B<-community> argument.  This argument expects a string that is to be used as
the SNMP community name.  By default the community name is set to 'public' 
if the argument is not present.

=item User-based Security Model Arguments

The User-based Security Model (USM) used by SNMPv3 requires that a securityName
be specified using the B<-username> argument.  The creation of a Net::SNMP
object with the version set to SNMPv3 will fail if the B<-username> argument
is not present.  The B<-username> argument expects a string 1 to 32 octets
in length.

Different levels of security are allowed by the User-based Security Model which
address authentication and privacy concerns.  A SNMPv3 Net::SNMP object will 
derive the security level (securityLevel) based on which of the following 
arguments are specified.

By default a securityLevel of 'noAuthNoPriv' is assumed.  If the B<-authkey> 
or B<-authpassword> arguments are specified, the securityLevel becomes 
'authNoPriv'.  The B<-authpassword> argument expects a string which is at 
least 1 octet in length.  Optionally, the B<-authkey> argument can be used so 
that a plain text password does not have to be specified in a script.  The 
B<-authkey> argument expects a hexadecimal string produced by localizing the 
password with the authoritativeEngineID for the specific destination device.  
The C<snmpkey> utility included with the distribution can be used to create 
the hexadecimal string (see L<snmpkey>).

Two different hash algorithms are defined by SNMPv3 which can be used by the 
Security Model for authentication.  These algorithms are HMAC-MD5-96 "MD5" 
(RFC 1321) and HMAC-SHA-96 "SHA-1" (NIST FIPS PUB 180-1).   The default 
algorithm used by the module is HMAC-MD5-96.  This behavior can be changed by 
using the B<-authprotocol> argument.  This argument expects either the string 
'md5' or 'sha' to be passed to modify the hash algorithm.

By specifying the arguments B<-privkey> or B<-privpassword> the securityLevel
associated with the object becomes 'authPriv'.  According to SNMPv3, privacy 
requires the use of authentication.  Therefore, if either of these two 
arguments are present and the B<-authkey> or B<-authpassword> arguments are 
missing, the creation of the object fails.  The B<-privkey> and 
B<-privpassword> arguments expect the same input as the B<-authkey> and 
B<-authpassword> arguments respectively.

The User-based Security Model described in RFC 3414 defines a single encryption
protocol to be used for privacy.  This protocol, CBC-DES "DES" (NIST FIPS PUB 
46-1), is used by default or if the string 'des' is passed to the 
B<-privprotocol> argument.  The module also supports RFC 3826 which describes
the use of CFB128-AES-128 "AES" (NIST FIPS PUB 197) in the USM.  The AES 
encryption protocol can be selected by passing 'aes' or 'aes128' to the 
B<-privprotocol> argument.  By working with the Extended Security Options
Consortium L<http://www.snmp.com/protocol/eso.shtml>, the module also supports
CBC-3DES-EDE "Triple-DES" (NIST FIPS 46-3) in the User-based Security Model.
This is defined in the draft
L<http://www.snmp.com/eso/draft-reeder-snmpv3-usm-3desede-00.txt>.  The
Triple-DES encryption protocol can be selected using the B<-privprotocol> 
argument with the string '3des' or '3desede'.

This method performs a SNMP get-request query to gather data from the remote
agent on the host associated with the Net::SNMP object.  The message is built
using the list of OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in dotted notation passed to the method
as an array reference using the B<-varbindlist> argument.  Each OBJECT 
IDENTIFIER is placed into a single SNMP GetRequest-PDU in the same order that 
it held in the original list.

A reference to a hash is returned in blocking mode which contains the contents
of the VarBindList.  In non-blocking mode, a true value is returned when no 
error has occurred.  In either mode, the undefined value is returned when an
error has occurred.  The C<error()> method may be used to determine the cause
of the failure.

This method is used to modify data on the remote agent that is associated
with the Net::SNMP object using a SNMP set-request.  The message is built 
using a list of values consisting of groups of an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an object 
type, and the actual value to be set.  This list is passed to the method as 
an array reference using the B<-varbindlist> argument.  The OBJECT IDENTIFIERs 
in each trio are to be in dotted notation.  The object type is an octet 
corresponding to the ASN.1 type of value that is to be set.  Each of the 
supported ASN.1 types have been defined and are exported by the package by 
default (see L<"EXPORTS">).

A reference to a hash is returned in blocking mode which contains the contents

This method sends a SNMP trap to the remote manager associated with the
Net::SNMP object.  All arguments are optional and will be given the following 
defaults in the absence of a corresponding named argument:

=over

=item *

The default value for the trap B<-enterprise> is "1.3.6.1.4.1", which 
corresponds to "iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises".  The enterprise 
value is expected to be an OBJECT IDENTIFER in dotted notation.

=item *

When the Transport Domain is UDP/IPv4 or TCP/IPv4, the default value for the
trap B<-agentaddr> is the IP address associated with the interface on which 
the trap will be transmitted.  For other Transport Domains the B<-agentaddr>
is defaulted to "0.0.0.0".  When specified, the agent-addr is expected to be
an IpAddress in dotted notation.

=item *

The default value for the B<-generictrap> type is 6 which corresponds to 
"enterpriseSpecific".  The generic-trap types are defined and can be exported
upon request (see L<"EXPORTS">).

=item *

The default value for the B<-specifictrap> type is 0.  No pre-defined values
are available for specific-trap types.

=item *

The default value for the trap B<-timestamp> is the "uptime" of the script.  
The "uptime" of the script is the number of hundredths of seconds that have 
elapsed since the script began running.  The time-stamp is expected to be a 
TimeTicks number in hundredths of seconds.

=item *

The default value for the trap B<-varbindlist> is an empty array reference.
The variable-bindings are expected to be in an array format consisting of 
groups of an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an object type, and the actual value of the 
object.  This is identical to the list expected by the C<set_request()> method.
The OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in each trio are to be in dotted notation.  The object 
type is an octet corresponding to the ASN.1 type for the value. Each of the 
supported types have been defined and are exported by default (see 
L<"EXPORTS">).

=back

A true value is returned when the method is successful. The undefined value 
is returned when a failure has occurred.  The C<error()> method can be used to
determine the cause of the failure. Since there are no acknowledgements for 
Trap-PDUs, there is no way to determine if the remote host actually received
the trap.

B<NOTE:> When the object is in non-blocking mode, the trap is not sent until 
the event loop is entered and no callback is ever executed.

B<NOTE:> This method can only be used when the version of the object is set to
SNMPv1.

The default value for the get-bulk-request B<-maxrepetitions> is 0. The
max-repetitions value specifies the number of successors to be returned for
the remaining variables in the variable-bindings list.

This method performs repeated SNMP get-next-request or get-bulk-request 
(when using SNMPv2c or SNMPv3) queries to gather data from the remote agent 
on the host associated with the Net::SNMP object.  The first message sent 
is built using the OBJECT IDENTIFIER in dotted notation passed to the method 
by the B<-baseoid> argument.   Repeated SNMP requests are issued until the 
OBJECT IDENTIFIER in the response is no longer a child of the base OBJECT 
IDENTIFIER.

The B<-maxrepetitions> argument can be used to specify the max-repetitions
value that is passed to the get-bulk-requests when using SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.  
If this argument is not present, a value is calculated based on the maximum 
message size for the Net::SNMP object.  If the value is set to 1 or less, 
get-next-requests will be used for the queries instead of get-bulk-requests.

A reference to a hash is returned in blocking mode which contains the contents
of the VarBindList.  In non-blocking mode, a true value is returned when no
error has occurred.  In either mode, the undefined value is returned when an
error has occurred.  The C<error()> method may be used to determine the cause
of the failure.

B<WARNING:> Results from this method can become very large if the base
OBJECT IDENTIFIER is close to the root of the SNMP MIB tree.

=head2 get_entries() - retrieve table entries from the remote agent

                       );

This method performs repeated SNMP get-next-request or get-bulk-request
(when using SNMPv2c or SNMPv3) queries to gather data from the remote agent
on the host associated with the Net::SNMP object.  Each message specifically
requests data for each OBJECT IDENTIFIER specified in the B<-columns> array.
The OBJECT IDENTIFIERs must correspond to column entries for a conceptual row 
in a table.  They may however be columns in different tables as long as each
table is indexed the same way.  The optional B<-startindex> and B<-endindex> 
arguments may be specified to limit the query to specific rows in the table(s).

The B<-startindex> can be specified as a single decimal value or in dotted
notation if the index associated with the entry so requires.  If the
B<-startindex> is specified, it will be include as part of the query results.
If no B<-startindex> is specified, the first request message will be sent
without an index.  To insure that the B<-startindex> is included, the last
sub-identifier in the index is decremented by one.  If the last sub-identifier
has a value of zero, the sub-identifier is removed from the index.

The optional B<-endindex> argument can be specified as a single decimal value
or in dotted notation.  If the B<-endindex> is specified, it will be included 
as part of the query results.  If no B<-endindex> is specified, repeated SNMP
requests are issued until the response no longer returns entries matching 
any of the columns specified in the B<-columns> array.

The B<-maxrepetitions> argument can be used to specify the max-repetitions
value that is passed to the get-bulk-requests when using SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.
If this argument is not present, a value is calculated based on the maximum
message size of the object and the number of columns specified in the
B<-columns> array.  If the value is set to 1 or less, get-next-requests will 
be used for the queries instead of get-bulk-requests.

A reference to a hash is returned in blocking mode which contains the contents
of the VarBindList.  In non-blocking mode, a true value is returned when no
error has occurred.  In either mode, the undefined value is returned when an
error has occurred.  The C<error()> method may be used to determine the cause
of the failure.

This method returns a hash reference created using the ObjectName and the 
ObjectSyntax pairs in the VarBindList of the last SNMP message received by 
the object.  The keys of the hash consist of the OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in dotted
notation corresponding to each ObjectName in the VarBindList.  If any of the 
OBJECT IDENTIFIERs passed to the request method began with a leading dot, all
of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER hash keys will be prefixed with a leading dot.  If 
duplicate OBJECT IDENTIFIERs are present in the VarBindList they will be 
padded with spaces to make them an unique hash key.  The value of each hash
entry is set equal to the value of the corresponding ObjectSyntax.  The
undefined value is returned if there has been a failure.

in the last SNMP message.  The entries in the array will map directly to the
keys in the hash reference returned by the methods that perform SNMP message
exchanges and by the C<var_bind_list()> and C<var_bind_types()> methods.  The
array returned for the convenience methods C<get_table()> and C<get_entries()>

This method returns a hash reference created using the ObjectName and the ASN.1
type of the ObjectSyntax in the VarBindList of the last SNMP message received
by the object.  The keys of the hash consist of the OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in 
dotted notation corresponding to each ObjectName in the VarBindList.  The
value of each hash entry is set equal to the ASN.1 type of the corresponding
ObjectSyntax.  Constants for the supported ASN.1 types have been defined and
are exported by the package by default (see L<"EXPORTS">).  The undefined value
is returned if there has been a failure.

=head2 timeout() - set or get the current timeout period for the object

$seconds = $session->timeout([$seconds]);

This method returns the current value for the Transport Layer timeout for 
the Net::SNMP object.  This value is the number of seconds that the object 
will wait for a response from the agent on the remote host.  The default 
timeout is 5.0 seconds.

If a parameter is specified, the timeout for the object is set to the provided
value if it falls within the range 1.0 to 60.0 seconds.  The undefined value
is returned upon an error and the C<error()> method may be used to determine
the cause.

=head2 retries() - set or get the current retry count for the object

$count = $session->retries([$count]);

This method returns the current value for the number of times to retry
sending a SNMP message to the remote host.  The default number of retries
is 1.

If a parameter is specified, the number of retries for the object is set to
the provided value if it falls within the range 0 to 20. The undefined value
is returned upon an error and the C<error()> method may be used to determine 
the cause.

=head2 max_msg_size() - set or get the current maxMsgSize for the object

$octets = $session->max_msg_size([$octets]);

This method returns the current value for the maximum message size 
(maxMsgSize) for the Net::SNMP object.  This value is the largest message size
in octets that can be prepared or processed by the object.  The default 
maxMsgSize is 1472 octets for UDP/IPv4, 1452 octets for UDP/IPv6, 1460 octets
for TCP/IPv4, and 1440 octets for TCP/IPv6.

If a parameter is specified, the maxMsgSize is set to the provided
value if it falls within the range 484 to 65535 octets.  The undefined 
value is returned upon an error and the C<error()> method may be used to 
determine the cause.

B<NOTE:> When using SNMPv3, the maxMsgSize is actually contained in the SNMP
message (as msgMaxSize).  If the value received from a remote device is less 
than the current maxMsgSize, the size is automatically adjusted to be the 
lower value.

                     ]);

When the object decodes the GetResponse-PDU that is returned in response to 
a SNMP message, certain values are translated into a more "human readable" 
form.  By default the following translations occur:

=over

=item *

OCTET STRINGs and Opaques containing any octet which is not part of the
character set defined as a DisplayString in RFC 2679 are converted into a
hexadecimal representation prefixed with "0x".  The control codes NUL(0x00),
BEL(0x07), BS(0x08), HT(0x09), LF(0x0A), VT(0x0b), FF(0x0C), and CR(0x0D)
are part of the character set and will not trigger translation.  The sequence
'CR x' for any x other than LF or NUL is illegal and will trigger translation.

=item *

TimeTicks integer values are converted to a time format.

=item *

NULL values return the string "NULL" instead of an empty string.

=item *

noSuchObject exception values return the string "noSuchObject" instead of an
empty string.

=item *

noSuchInstance exception values return the string "noSuchInstance" instead of 
an empty string.

=item *

endOfMibView exception values return the string "endOfMibView" instead of an
empty string.

=item *

Counter64, Counter, Gauge, and TimeTick values that have been incorrectly 
encoded as signed negative values are returned as unsigned values.

=back

The C<translate()> method can be invoked with two different types of arguments.

If the argument passed is any Perl variable type except an array reference,
the translation mode for all ASN.1 types is set to either enabled or disabled, 
depending on the value of the passed parameter.  Any value that Perl would 
treat as a true value will set the mode to be enabled for all types, while a 
false value will disable translation for all types.

A reference to an array can be passed to the C<translate()> method in order to
define the translation mode on a per ASN.1 type basis.  The array is expected
to contain a list of named argument pairs for each ASN.1 type that is to
be modified.  The arguments in the list are applied in the order that they
are passed in via the array.  Arguments at the end of the list supercede 
those passed earlier in the list.  The argument "-all" can be used to specify
that the mode is to apply to all ASN.1 types.  Only the arguments for the 
ASN.1 types that are to be modified need to be included in the list.

The C<translate()> method returns a bit mask indicating which ASN.1 types
are to be translated.  Definitions of the bit to ASN.1 type mappings can be
exported using the I<:translate> tag (see L<"EXPORTS">).  The undefined value 
is returned upon an error and the C<error()> method may be used to determine 
the cause.

=head2 debug() - set or get the debug mode for the module

$mask = $session->debug([$mask]);

This method is used to enable or disable debugging for the Net::SNMP module. 
Debugging can be enabled on a per component level as defined by a bit mask
passed to the C<debug()> method.  The bit mask is broken up as follows:

=over

=item *

0x02 - Message or PDU encoding and decoding

=item *

0x04 - Transport Layer

=item *

0x08 - Dispatcher

=item *

0x10 - Message Processing

=item *

0x20 - Security

=back

Symbols representing these bit mask values are defined by the module and can
be exported using the I<:debug> tag (see L<"EXPORTS">).  If a non-numeric
value is passed to the C<debug()> method, it is evaluated in boolean context.
Debugging for all of the components is then enabled or disabled based on the
resulting truth value.

The current debugging mask is returned by the method.  Debugging can also be
enabled using the stand alone function C<snmp_debug()>. This function can be
exported by request (see L<"EXPORTS">).

This function takes two OBJECT IDENTIFIERs in dotted notation and returns a
true value (i.e. 0x1) if the second OBJECT IDENTIFIER is equal to or is a 
child of the first OBJECT IDENTIFIER in the SNMP Management Information Base 
(MIB).  This function can be used in conjunction with the C<get-next-request()>

=head1 EXAMPLES

=head2 1. Blocking SNMPv1 get-request for sysUpTime

This example gets the sysUpTime from a remote host.

#! /usr/local/bin/perl

use strict;
   use warnings;

use Net::SNMP;

my $OID_sysUpTime = '1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0';

my ($session, $error) = Net::SNMP->session(
      -hostname  => shift || 'localhost',
      -community => shift || 'public',
   );

if (!defined $session) {
      printf "ERROR: %s.\n", $error;
      exit 1;
   }

my $result = $session->get_request(-varbindlist => [ $OID_sysUpTime ],);

if (!defined $result) {
      printf "ERROR: %s.\n", $session->error();
      $session->close();
      exit 1;
   }

printf "The sysUpTime for host '%s' is %s.\n",
          $session->hostname(), $result->{$OID_sysUpTime};

$session->close();

exit 0;

=head2 2. Blocking SNMPv3 set-request of sysContact

This example sets the sysContact information on the remote host to 
"Help Desk x911".  The named arguments passed to the C<session()> constructor
are for the demonstration of syntax only.  These parameters will need to be
set according to the SNMPv3 parameters of the remote host.  The C<snmpkey>
utility included with the distribution can be used to create the key values.

#! /usr/local/bin/perl

use strict;
   use warnings;

use Net::SNMP;

my $OID_sysContact = '1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0';

my ($session, $error) = Net::SNMP->session(
      -hostname     => 'myv3host.example.com',
      -version      => 'snmpv3',
      -username     => 'myv3Username',
      -authprotocol => 'sha1',
      -authkey      => '0x6695febc9288e36282235fc7151f128497b38f3f',
      -privprotocol => 'des',
      -privkey      => '0x6695febc9288e36282235fc7151f1284',
   );

if (!defined $session) {
      printf "ERROR: %s.\n", $error;
      exit 1;
   }

my $result = $session->set_request(
      -varbindlist => [ $OID_sysContact, OCTET_STRING, 'Help Desk x911' ],
   );

if (!defined $result) {
      printf "ERROR: %s.\n", $session->error();
      $session->close();
      exit 1;
   }

printf "The sysContact for host '%s' was set to '%s'.\n",
          $session->hostname(), $result->{$OID_sysContact};

$session->close();

exit 0;

=head2 3. Non-blocking SNMPv2c get-bulk-request for ifTable

This example gets the contents of the ifTable by sending get-bulk-requests
until the responses are no longer part of the ifTable.  The ifTable can also 
be retrieved using the C<get_table()> method.  The ifPhysAddress object in
the table has a syntax of an OCTET STRING.  By default, translation is enabled
and non-printable OCTET STRINGs are translated into a hexadecimal format.
Sometimes the OCTET STRING contains all printable characters and this produces
unexpected output when it is not translated.  The example turns off translation
for OCTET STRINGs and specifically formats the output for the ifPhysAddress
objects.

      -translate   => [-octetstring => 0],

      if (!oid_base_match($OID_ifPhysAddress, $oid)) {

=head2 4. Non-blocking SNMPv1 get-request and set-request on multiple hosts

This example first polls several hosts for their sysUpTime.  If the poll of
the host is successful, the sysContact and sysLocation information is set on
the host.  The sysContact information is hardcoded to "Help Desk x911" while
the sysLocation information is passed as an argument to the callback.

#! /usr/local/bin/perl

use strict;
   use warnings;

use Net::SNMP;

my $OID_sysUpTime = '1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0';

   my $OID_sysLocation = '1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0';

# Hash of hosts and location data.

my %host_data = (
      '10.1.1.2'  => 'Building 1, Second Floor',
      '10.2.1.1'  => 'Building 2, First Floor',
      'localhost' => 'Right here!',
   );

# Create a session for each host and queue a get-request for sysUpTime.

for my $host (keys %host_data) {

my ($session, $error) = Net::SNMP->session(
         -hostname    => $host,
         -community   => 'private',
         -nonblocking => 1,
      );

if (!defined $session) {
         printf "ERROR: Failed to create session for host '%s': %s.\n",
                $host, $error;
         next;
      }

         -varbindlist => [ $OID_sysUpTime ],
         -callback    => [ \&get_callback, $host_data{$host} ],
      );

if (!defined $result) {
         printf "ERROR: Failed to queue get request for host '%s': %s.\n",
                $session->hostname(), $session->error();
      }

}

snmp_dispatcher();

exit 0;

sub get_callback
   {
      my ($session, $location) = @_;

              $session->hostname(), $result->{$OID_sysUpTime};

            $OID_sysLocation, OCTET_STRING, $location,
         ],
         -callback    => \&set_callback,
      );

if (!defined $result) {
         printf "ERROR: Failed to queue set request for host '%s': %s.\n",
                $session->hostname(), $session->error();
      }

return;
   }

                $session->hostname(), $result->{$OID_sysContact};
         printf "The sysLocation for host '%s' was set to '%s'.\n",

                $session->hostname(), $session->error();
      }

return;
   }

=head1 REQUIREMENTS

=over

=item *
