Perl5 module providing rudimentary access to SNMPv1 and v2 agents

This archive contains Perl 5 modules SNMP_Session.pm and BER.pm, which, when used together, provide rudimentary access to remote SNMP (v1 and v2) agents. This module differs from existing SNMP packages in that it is completely stand-alone, i.e. you don't need to have another SNMP package such as CMU SNMP. It is also written entirely in Perl, so you don't have to compile any C modules. It uses the Perl 5 Socket.pm module and should therefore be very portable, even to non-Unix systems. The SNMP operations currently supported are "get", "get-next", "get-bulk" and "set", as well as trap generation and reception.
