This is a module with functions for handling mac addresses. There are
|
||
|
already two or three MAC addressing functions in CPAN, the motivation
|
||
|
for this module is moderate functionality without Moose.
|
||
|
|
||
|
With that in mind, you can understand why I have cloned much of the really
|
||
|
useful functionality from the two or three existing similar modules on CPAN.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I've covered off all the mac address formats I deal with in my workplace
|
||
|
of mixed hardware. This module can decode just about anything that looks
|
||
|
reasonably like a mac address, and stringify into every format I have seen
|
||
|
used...
|
||
|
|
||
|
So sorry, I'm not really interesting in adding a templating function to
|
||
|
define your own mac address formats. You're welcome to either send in a
|
||
|
patch, extend this module or quickly write a function that wraps the 'raw'
|
||
|
output to whatever you want. Match and join are your friends :)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hopefully this module is useful to you. So far I have been pleased with
|
||
|
the amount of feedback and patches people have sent in, this has been very
|
||
|
rewarding as well as providing a number of new features I have been able
|
||
|
to use myself.
