The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:

  modid:       SNMP::BridgeQuery
  DSLIP:       bdpfp
  description: Query bridge/switch for forwarding database
  userid:      JSHEARER (John D. Shearer)
  chapterid:    5 (Networking_Devices_IPC)
  communities:
    comp.lang.perl.modules [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  similar:

  rationale:

    This module uses Net::SNMP to poll bridges or managable switches
    for their forwarding database. SNMP::BridgeQuery returns a hash
    reference of MAC addresses and port indexes. By combiming this
    module with a web interface, it has proved very useful in tracking
    down the physical location of computers (by using the MAC address
    retrieved from DHCP).

    Other modules support SNMP, but this module is specific in its
    approach to give 'simple' and useful information without the digging
    which is typical.

  enteredby:   JSHEARER (John D. Shearer)

The resulting entry would be:

SNMP::
::BridgeQuery     bdpfp Query bridge/switch for forwarding database  JSHEARER
