Installing Perl

If you install Perl to take advantage of this application’s use of Perl Scripting capabilities, you must

install it on the path on the application server and mediation server host.

We recommend Perl version 5.10. Some applications also require Perl as well as the Perl module

Net::Telnet.

This application does not package Perl. If you want to use the Perl scripting features (for example in

Adaptive CLI group operations described in Chapter 22, Group Operations), you must make sure

your system has Perl installed. You can find information about Perl at www.perl.com. Follow the

downloads link to find the recommended distribution for your specific platform.

One of the recommended Perl packages is from ActiveState which can be found at:
