If you only have one equals sign dividing what you don't need, and what you
are looking for:
$string = "interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInOctets.4 = 954819405";
($key, $val) = split /=/, $string;

with a regular expression.
$string =~ s/.* = //;
would be one way to do it.
Another way would be
$string =~ m/ = (\d+)/;
my $value = $1;
which could be better written as:
my ($value) = ($string =~ m/ = (\d+)/);
