Re: SNMP "bridging"/proxy?

Hi Nathan,

You should probably write a cacti script to ingest the data instead of this SNMP proxy thing. Writing scripts to ingest data into cacti is simple, you just need to output the values you want in key: value format and then do some clicking in cacti. There are good docs for how to do this.

Hey, thanks guys!  I had never really looked that deeply into Net-SNMP and had only ever installed it either to use as a 
client (snmpget/snmpwalk) or a basic agent w/ standard MIBs for the host it's running on, so I was unaware of its 
extensibility.  And it even looks like it ships with a Perl module.  That sounds like a perfect solution; thanks for 
pointing me in the right direction.
