SYNOPSIS
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
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.

GLOBAL METHODS
These are methods that return scalar values from SNMP
$bridge->b_mac()
Returns the MAC Address of the root bridge port
("dot1dBaseBridgeAddress")

Returns the number of ports in device
("dot1dBaseNumPorts")
$bridge->b_type()
Returns the type of bridging this bridge can perform, transparent
and/or source route.
("dot1dBaseType")
$bridge->stp_ver()
Returns what version of STP the device is running.
("dot1dStpProtocolSpecification")
$bridge->stp_time()
Returns time since last topology change detected. (100ths/second)
("dot1dStpTimeSinceTopologyChange")
$bridge->stp_root()
Returns root of STP.
("dot1dStpDesignatedRoot")
$bridge->qb_vlans_max()
Maximum number of VLANS supported on this device.
("dot1qMaxSupportedVlans")
$bridge->qb_vlans()

$bridge->qb_next_vlan_index()
The next available value for "dot1qVlanIndex" of a local VLAN entry
in "dot1qVlanStaticTable"

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.
$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->qb_i_vlan_t()
Returns reference to hash: key = "dot1dBasePort", value = either
'trunk' for tagged ports or the VLAN ID.
$bridge->v_index()
Returns VLAN IDs
Forwarding Table ("dot1dTpFdbEntry")
$bridge->fw_mac()
Returns reference to hash of forwarding table MAC Addresses
("dot1dTpFdbAddress")
$bridge->fw_port()
Returns reference to hash of forwarding table entries port
interface identifier (iid)
("dot1dTpFdbPort")
$bridge->fw_status()
Returns reference to hash of forwarding table entries status
("dot2dTpFdbStatus")
Bridge Port Table ("dot1dBasePortEntry")
$bridge->bp_index()
Returns reference to hash of bridge port table entries map back to
interface identifier (iid)
("dot1dBasePortIfIndex")
$bridge->bp_port()
Returns reference to hash of bridge port table entries for a port
which (potentially) has the same value of "dot1dBasePortIfIndex" as
another port on the same bridge, this object contains the name of
an object instance unique to this port.
("dot1dBasePortCircuit")
Spanning Tree Protocol Table ("dot1dStpPortTable")
Descriptions are straight from BRIDGE-MIB.my
$bridge->stp_p_id()
"The port number of the port for which this entry contains Spanning
Tree Protocol management information."
("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)."
disabled(1)blocking(2)listening(3)learning(4)forwarding(5)broken(6)
("dot1dStpPortState")
$bridge->stp_p_cost()
"The contribution of this port to the path cost of paths towards
the spanning tree root which include this port. 802.1D-1990
recommends that the default value of this parameter be in inverse
proportion to the speed of the attached LAN."
("dot1dStpPortPathCost")
$bridge->stp_p_root()
"The unique Bridge Identifier of the Bridge recorded as the Root in
the Configuration BPDUs transmitted by the Designated Bridge for
the segment to which the port is attached."
("dot1dStpPortDesignatedRoot")
$bridge->stp_p_bridge()
"The Bridge Identifier of the bridge which this port considers to
be the Designated Bridge for this port's segment."
("dot1dStpPortDesignatedBridge")
$bridge->stp_p_port()
("dot1dStpPortDesignatedPort")
"The Port Identifier of the port on the Designated Bridge for this
port's segment."

VLANs which do not include this Port in its Member set. When
"false", the port will accept all incoming frames.
