I'm sure if you peruse the archives, you'll see that I post about this 
about every year. The answer to your question is 'No, I haven't found what 
I am looking for yet.'

However, the quest I am on is slightly different.

I am looking for a device that meets the following criteria.


a) Reasonably small. This probably wouldn't be rack mounted; it'd be wall 
mounted, desk mounted, celing mounted, etc.

b) Powered by PoE.

c) Is SNMPable over Ethernet. NOT RS232 or serial, or anything archaic 
like that. Not MODBUS. It's 2004, people.

d) Provides Temperature and Humidity.

e) Has 4 or so input contact sensors (connections to AC units, etc.)

f) Has 4 or so output contact sensors.

I think what you are looking for is something like this:

And folks: it does IPv6 *ONLY* and was, during that ietf reachable
globally, so you could telnet into it ;)

There is this large IPv6 toy setup somewhere in Japan and they seem to
have all kinds of these devices and thus I think if you want one of
these kind of toys you will have to look into that direction...

Greets,
 Jeroen
