-This archive contains Perl 5 modules SNMP_Session.pm and BER.pm,
-which, when used together, provide rudimentary access to remote SNMP
-(v1) agents.
-
-This module differs from existing SNMP packages in that it is
-completely stand-alone, i.e. you don't need to have another SNMP
-package such as CMU SNMP. It is also written entirely in Perl, so you
-don't have to compile any C modules. It uses the Perl 5 Socket.pm
-module and should therefore be very portable, even to non-Unix systems.
-
-The SNMP operations currently supported are "get", "get-next", and
-"set", as well as trap generation and reception.
-
-For an excellent example of the type of application this is useful
-for, see Tobias Oetiker's ``mrtg'' (Multi Router Traffic Grapher)
-tool.
