spickles :Following up on your chatterbox message - let me just say that this community has absolutely the brightest minds in programming.

It is not uncommon to feel overwhelmed by flatly stated improvement suggestions (which you interpreted as criticism).

After 8 years in this community, I continue to be corrected - sometimes even cited for my ignorance. This can be humbling, but it is also educational to the extent that the ego bruise is barely noticeable.

On the subject of this message thread - as a former Network Admin - I can see where you want to go with this program - I'd STRONGLY recommend placing this information in a database - If you are a windows/office user - start with MS access. Create separate tables for DHCP-scope, VLAN, Subnets, switches+routers (Devices), ports, and endpoints (servers, workstations, Ip phones). You can use perl/DBI/Class::DBI to access/update these, but it is easier to use the database software for data entry. Database constraints can also help with data validation.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


No such thing as a small change
