SNMP::Info::PortAccessEntity(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation SNMP::Info::PortAccessEntity(3)

SNMP::Info::PortAccessEntity - SNMP Interface to data stored in IEEE8021-PAE-MIB.

Christian Ramseyer

 # Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
 my $pae = new SNMP::Info(
                          AutoSpecify => 1,
                          Debug       => 1,
                          DestHost    => 'myswitch',
                          Community   => 'public',
                          Version     => 2
                        )
    or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";
 my $class      = $pae->class();
 print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

IEEE8021-PAE-MIB is used to describe Port Access Entities, aka NAC/dot1x features.

Create or use a device subclass that inherit this class. Do not use directly.

For debugging purposes you can call this class directly as you would SNMP::Info

 my $pae = new SNMP::Info::PortAccessEntity (...);

none.

$pae->pae_control()
The administrative enable/disable state for Port Access Control in a System. Possible values are enabled and disabled.

"dot1xPaeSystemAuthControl"

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

$pae->pae_authconfig_state()
Authentication state: is the port authenticated, disconnected, etc.

"dot1xAuthPaeState"

$pae->pae_authconfig_port_status()
Controlled Port status parameter for the Port: can only be authorized or unauthorized

"dot1xAuthAuthControlledPortStatus"

$pae->pae_authsess_user()
The User-Name representing the identity of the Supplicant PAE. This can be a pretty arbitrary string besides an actual username, e.g. a MAC address for MAB or a hostname for dot1x.

"dot1xAuthSessionUserName"

$pae->pae_authsess_mab()
Helper method, guess if this a mac address bypass port: contains the string "mab" for indexes where the pae_authsess_user looks like a MAC address.
