SYNOPSIS

 # Let SNMP::Info determine the correct subclass for you.
 my $ckp = new SNMP::Info(
                          AutoSpecify => 1,
                          Debug       => 1,
                          DestHost    => 'myrouter',
                          Community   => 'public',
                          Version     => 2
                        )
    or die "Can't connect to DestHost.\n";

 my $class      = $ckp->class();
 print "SNMP::Info determined this device to fall under subclass : $class\n";

DESCRIPTION

Subclass for CheckPoint Devices.

WARNING

To correctly and completely work on IPSO based devices, you should add the following line in the file "/etc/snmp/snmpd.local.conf" on each of your CheckPoint devices:

 # Netdisco SNMP configuration
 extend  ckpVersion /opt/CPsuite-R77/fw1/bin/fw ver
 extend  ckpAsset /bin/clish -c 'show asset all'

Inherited Classes

SNMP::Info::Layer3

Required MIBs

CHECKPOINT-MIB
UCD-SNMP-MIB
NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB
NET-SNMP-TC
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB
Inherited Classes' MIBs: See SNMP::Info::Layer3 for its own MIB requirements.

GLOBALS

These are methods that return scalar value from SNMP

$ckp->vendor(): Returns "svnApplianceManufacturer" in lowercase, else 'checkpoint'.
$ckp->model(): Returns "svnApplianceProductName", else the model type based on the sysObjectOID translation.
$ckp->os(): Returns the OS extracted from "sysDescr".
$ckp->os_ver(): Returns "svnVersion", else the software version is extracted from "sysDescr", along with the Net-SNMP version.
$ckp->uptime(): Returns the system uptime instead of the agent uptime. NOTE: discontinuity timers and other Time Stamp based objects are based on agent uptime, so use orig_uptime().
$ckp->serial(): Returns <svnApplianceSerialNumber>, else the serial number of the device if the SNMP server is configured as indicated previously. Returns '' in other case.
$ckp->layers(): Return '01001100'.

TABLE ENTRIES

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

Overrides

$ckp->i_ignore(): Returns reference to hash. Increments value of IID if port is to be ignored.
Ignores loopback

NOTES

If your device is not recognized by SNMP::Info as being in the class SNMP::Info::Layer3::CheckPoint you might need additional snmp configuration on the CheckPoint device.

In order to cause SNMP::Info to classify your device into this class, it may be necessary to put a configuration line into your snmpd.conf similar to

  sysobjectid .1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.N

where N is the object ID for your OS from the "NET-SNMP-TC" MIB (or 255 if not listed). Some Net-SNMP installations default to an incorrect return value for "system.sysObjectId".

In order to recognize a Net-SNMP device as Layer3, it may be necessary to put a configuration line similar to

  sysservices 76

in your snmpd.conf.
