This module is geared towards network devices. Subclasses exist for a number
of network devices and common MIBs.
The idea behind this module is to give a common interface to data from network
devices, leaving the device-specific hacks behind the scenes in subclasses.
The information may be coming from any number of MIB files and is very vendor
specific. SNMP::Info provides you a common method for all supported devices.
Adding support for your own device is easy, and takes little much SNMP
knowledge. The module is not limited to network devices. Any MIB or device can
be given an objected oriented front-end by making a module that consists of a
couple hashes. See EXTENDING SNMP::INFO.
