Sorry I can't help with your exact LWP problem, but is there a reason why you're querying the Web UI of the 3300?

From experience SNMP is a much better way of obtaining information from networking equipment. Generally the mac address database/FDB is in the same place in the tree, however you could just look up the manufacturer's OID to find it and query that using Net::SNMP

I know some networks groups get a bit twitchy (well, mine does at least!) about SNMP so maybe it's not a solution for you :(

    Someone else in the office was directed to extract the data, and was shown the HTTP interface. When that didn't prove to be straightforward, I was consulted as the resident perl guru to explain why LWP wasn't working as expected.

    Now that you've made the suggestion, though, it seems like the smarter way to go. Thanks for the suggestion :)
