Re: Perl script for capturing SNMP Alerts.

In the interest of not reinventing wheels you might also look into Nagios which has off the shelf support for monitoring with SNMP and is (fairly) easily extensible with whatever other language in which you want to indulge (including perl which is what several of the stock checks are written in).

Hi Fletch, Thank you for the information. Extra thanks for pointing out that my favourite language is still being used and not as abandoned as the online hype seems to portray. The language and this community both are a refuge for someone like me who is not a trained professional programmer, but someone who likes scripting (Perl scripting especially) to automate stuff and have fun while doing it.
