in reply to Net::SNMP vs SNMP, and MIBs
The SNMP package is part of the net-snmp distribution and uses the net-snmp libraries to access snmp.
Where Net::SNMP is written in pure perl and accesses snmp directly using IO::Socket::INET.
I would use SNMP unless you don't have net-snmp on your computer, or can't get the perl bindings to libnetsnmp to complile on your computer.
