Nagios-Plugin-SNMP version 1.2
===============================

This module extends Nagios::Plugin with methods to help developers
writing SNMP plugins for Nagios.  It includes easy to use get() and
walk() methods; it also overloads the getopts() method of Nagios::Plugin
to include parsing and setting of these options:

* --warning|-w: Warning threshold [optional]
* --critical|-c: Warning threshold  [optional]
* --hostname|-H: SNMP device to query
* --port|-p: Port on remote device to connect to [default 161]
* --snmp-local-ip: Local IP to bind to for outgoing requests
* --snmp-version: SNMP version (1, 2c, 3)
* --snmp-timeout: Connect timeout in seconds [default 15]
* --snmp-debug: Turn on Net::SNMP debugging
* --snmp-max-msg-size N: Set maximum SNMP message size in bytes
* --rocommunity: Read-only community string for SNMP 1/v2c
* --auth-username: Auth username for SNMP v3
* --auth-password: Auth password for SNMP v3
* --auth-protocol: Auth protocol for SNMP v3 (defaults to md5)

This version supports delta processing and clustered queries 
(see perldoc for more information).

The module uses Net::SNMP for SNMP transport, so it works with
SNMP version 1, 2c, and 3.
