I thought so. Now that I look back the dependencies state x86_64.

For experimentation purposes how about trying to load some the dependent 
packages:

yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-Net-Server
yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-rrdtool
yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-Net-SNMP
yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-HTML-Template
yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-Date-Manip
yum --enablerepo=base,updates,rpmforge perl-HTML-Template
