SYNOPSIS

FIXME update with better example
my $bridge = new SNMP::Info (
AutoSpecify => 1,
Debug => 1,
DestHost => 'switch',
Community => 'public',
Version => 2
);

 my $class = $bridge->class();
 print " Using device sub class : $class\n";
 # Grab Forwarding Tables
 my $interfaces = $bridge->interfaces();
 my $fw_mac     = $bridge->fw_mac();
 my $fw_port    = $bridge->fw_port();
 my $bp_index   = $bridge->bp_index();
 foreach my $fw_index (keys %$fw_mac){
    my $mac   = $fw_mac->{$fw_index};
    my $bp_id = $fw_port->{$fw_index};
    my $iid   = $bp_index->{$bp_id};
    my $port  = $interfaces->{$iid};
    print "Port:$port forwarding to $mac\n";
 }

DESCRIPTION

IEEE8021-Q-BRIDGE-MIB is used by some newer switches / Layer 2 devices. It is derived from the IETF Q-BRIDGE-MIB (RFC 4363), extending it with the concept of multiple VLAN-aware bridges (PBB).

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::IEEE802_Bridge(...);

GLOBALS

These are methods that return scalar values from SNMP

TABLE METHODS

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