I have a set of modules like this: Net::SSH::Admin, Net::SSH::Admin::AddAccount, Net::SSH::Admin::DelAccount, etc...

The Net::SSH::Admin instatiates a new ssh object (using expect), and connects to serverX. The other modules are pretty obvious. I am wondering, how would I call a subroutine in the Net::SSH::Admin::AddAccount module? This is my current setup, but I assume there is a better way...

# THIS IS MAIN SCRIPT
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::SSH::Admin;

my $server=$ARGV[0];

my $ssh = Net::SSH::Admin->new (
            host => $server,
            password => $secret,
            user => 'myacct',
            timeout => 60
        );

$login = $ssh->connect();
if ($login)
    $ssh->add_account(username=>"bob");
}


# AND THIS IS HOW I AM CALLING THE FUNCTION FROM Net::SSH::Admin

package Net::SSH::Admin;
use warnings;
use strict;
use Expect;

use Socket;
use Carp;
use fields qw(
  host user password port ssh_option raw_pty exp_internal exp_debug ti
+meout log_stdout expect ostype prompt
);

use Net::SSH::Admin::AddAccount;

# I REMOVED sub new, sub connect, etc...

sub add_account {
    my Net::SSH::Admin $self = shift;
    my %args = @_;
        my $os = $self->{ostype};
    my $sub  = $ssh->can("${os}_mod_account");
    if ( !$sub ) {
        print "Don't know how to mod_account for $os\n";
    }
    else {
        $sub->( $ssh, %args );
    }
}
