Overview

There are four versions of this library:

• UPNP Unicast readynas-unicast.pl
• UPNP Multicast readynas-multicast.pl
• SNMP readynas-snmp.pl
• HYBRID readynas-hybrid.pl

There is a fifth file, that is an optional loader (see the Loader section for instructions) called "readynas.pl".

This library is for getting status information from NETGEAR ReadyNAS units
for use in status page generation, reports and other alerts. It is provided free of charge and without warranty.

NOTE: If none or only some of your ReadyNAS units are detected, try lengthening the socket and socket error timeouts.

There are some data elements not available by SNMP. These are:

• Boot Status (such as BOOT or UPDATE)
• Operating System Timestamp
• Operating System Name
• Operating System Version is in the old-style notation
• UPS Status
• Model

Also please note that discovery is not available with SNMP, each unit to monitor will need to be explicitly defined with an addUnit call. If no addUnit calls are made, it will default to loopback (127.0.0.1).
