Packit fcad23
The AnyData::SNMP module is really an augmentation to Jeff Zucker's
Packit fcad23
excellent perl AnyData and DBD::AnyData modules.  It is designed to
Packit fcad23
allow the infamous perl DBI module to translate SQL commands directly
Packit fcad23
into network SNMP requests and to manipulate the data in perl
Packit fcad23
afterward.  See the perl DBI documentation for further details, as
Packit fcad23
well as the AnyData documentation.

The netsh command then implements a standard shell around the sql to
Packit fcad23
SNMP mapping, such that commands like the following are possible:
Packit fcad23
Packit fcad23
  netsh -c public localhost 'select ifIndex, ifDescr, ifType from ifTable'
Packit fcad23
  netsh -c public localhost 'update ifTable set ifAdminStatus = 2 where ifType = 6'
Packit fcad23
Packit fcad23
Without a command to run, netsh puts you into an interactive shell
Packit fcad23
where the commands can be typed at a command prompt.

See the INSTALL file for the necessary prerequisites.  Note that this
Packit fcad23
currently makes use of a patched copy of the DBD::AnyData module.
Packit fcad23
This will be fixed in future versions of both this module and the
Packit fcad23
DBD::AnyData module as the authors worth toward a common
Packit fcad23
infrastructure.
