PySNMP: ASN.1: Encoding: BER: Introduction

### Basic Encoding Rules for ASN.1 data types

The pysnmp.asn1.encoding.ber package implements a BER-compliant encoding methods for ASN.1 data types, as a set of mix-in classes complementary to their correspondent ASN.1 objects.

To use pysnmp.asn1.encoding.ber serialization methods, user needs to "import" the pysnmp.asn1.encoding.ber package into his application -- importing this package causes all its components to be mixed-into corresponding ASN.1 classes (such as univ.Boolean).

This package contains the following modules:

- BER implementation
  - Base classes for BER methods
  - BER methods for ASN.1 universal data types
- Error handling
  - Package-level exceptions
