Thanks Dragonchild, I'm happy to know that I was closer then I thought. I'm trying to print out each value with this: 
foreach my $ip (keys %data) { 
  print "IP = $ip\n"; 
   for my $cname ( @{$data{$ip}{cname}} ) { 
    print "CName = $cname\n"; 
   } 
}

and here is what I get: 
IP = 192.168.30.136
CNAME = salamander.acme.com
CNAME = AMSPWD030WKG
CNAME = VLW4S
CNAME = WKBX0010B-A
IP = 192.168.30.130
CNAME = salamander.acme.com
CNAME = AMSPWD030WKG
CNAME = VLW4S
CNAME = WKBX0010B-A
IP = 192.168.30.131
CNAME = salamander.acme.com
CNAME = AMSPWD030WKG
CNAME = VLW4S
CNAME = WKBX0010B-A
IP = 192.168.30.133
CNAME = salamander.acme.com
CNAME = AMSPWD030WKG
CNAME = VLW4S
CNAME = WKBX0010B-A

How do I keep the cname value with the ip?
