snmp set method does not return a value as get does

Here is an example of an SNMP set that is don to reboot a specified
device.

        my $cmreset_oid = ".1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.1.3";
        my $set = new SNMP::Varbind([$cmreset_oid,0,1,"INTEGER"]);
        my $sess=new SNMP::Session(DestHost=>$cmip,
                           Community=>$cmstring,
                           Version=>2,
                           Timeout=>1000000,
                           Retries=>2);
        my $reset=$sess->set($set);

This example performs a get on the Time of Day from a specified device.
        my $tod_oid=".1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.1.2.0";
        my $get = new SNMP::Varbind[($tod_oid)];
        my $sess = new SNMP::Session(DestHost=>$cmip,
                                        Community=>$cmstring,
                                        Version=>2,
                                        Timeout=>1000000,
                                        UseSprintValue=>1,
                                        Retries=>2);
        my $cmtod=$sess->get($get);

If I print out the value of $reset it is NULL.  I am used to running
this via:
snmpset -v2c -r1 -c <community> <ipaddress> <reset oid> i 1

When processed by the device the statement above returns the status of
the snmpset to STDIO.  when using the traditional snmpset syntax within
a perl script I am then able to capture that value and process to
determine if the reset was successful or if some error occurred.  How do
I retrieve the response from SNMP Set using the method above?
