Template:FAQ:Perl 02

Assuming you have a reasonably new (and properly configured) perl system, this should be simply:

     cd perl           (for 5.0.x)

or

     cd perl/SNMP      (for 4.2.x)

     perl Makefile.PL
       (press RETURN when prompted for host and community)
     make
     make test
     make install  (probably as root)

Note that with the 5.0 release line, there are additional SNMP-related perl modules that should probably be installed as well. These can also be found under the 'perl' subdirectory. At the very least, install the 'default_store' module. This is not necessary with the 4.2.x releases.
