Installing an Pluggin (EqualLogic Monitoring)

[shaunie1975]

Hi Guys n Gals,

I have succesfully installed Nagios 3.4.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 server.

I am now trying to install an Pluggin to monitor my EqualLogic san device.
The one I am trying is:
http://exchange.nagios.org/component/mt ... ge/details

It states that the plugging requires the following:
This script requires the following perl modules Getopt :: Long, File :: Basename, POSIX, Net :: LDAP, Date :: Manip.

I am new to both Linux and Nagios
Could someone please explain in laymaans terms how I can install modules?

Thanks in advance
Shaun

The easiest way to install Perl plugins is through Perl's package manager "CPAN."

I would recommend using the following guide as it is short and to the point:
