Net::PcapUtils is a module to sit in front of Net::Pcap in order to hide some of the pcap(3) initialisation by providing sensible defaults. This enables a programmer to easily write small, specific scripts for a particular purpose without having to worry about too many details. The functions implemented in Net::PcapUtils are named after those in Net::Pcap.

Net::PH is a class implementing a simple Nameserver/PH client in Perl as described in the CCSO Nameserver -- server-Client Protocol. Like other modules in the Net:: family the Net::PH object inherits methods from Net::Cmd.

An interface to libpcap in Net::RawIP(3pm).

Invokes REXEC protocol to execute command on host using userid and password. If userid or password are omitted then they are retrieved from the netrc file. $rc is 0 if command was invoked on host, 1 otherwise unless the fork to invoke command fails in which case it is 2. Output is put into @output.

This is the base class for Perl RMI. It provided some basic methods common to both the client and server, and provides for data serialization.

The client portion of Net::RMI, contains the methods neccessary to find and invoke remote methods. Remote methods can be invoked explicitly via the $client->RM_someFunction or implicitly via a more subtly mechanism.

The server portion of Net::RMI, contains the methods for registering and serving remotely invoked methods. Functions may only receive scalars or references. Complex data types (i.e., arrays and hashes), must be passed by reference. Scalars, may also be optionally passed by reference. Functions may only return scalars or references. Complex data types (i.e., arrays and hashes), must be return as a reference. Scalars, may also be optionally returned as a reference.

The module Net::SNMP implements an object oriented interface to the Simple Network Management Protocol. Perl applications can use the module to retrieve or update information on a remote host using the SNMP protocol. Net::SNMP is implemented completely in Perl, requires no compiling, and uses only standard Perl modules.

This package contains a spooling daemon, in other words a process, that accepts files from an outside source (currently a Unix or TCP/IP socket), stores them in a spooling directory and processes them.

This module offers some high level convinience functions for accessing web pages on SSL servers, a sslcat() function for writing your own clients, and finally access to the SSL api of SSLeay package so you can write servers or clients for more complicated applications.
