Actually, it's not a stupid question. Basically, what you are looking for is
a monitoring component that handles SNMP MIBs. I wish that I could point you
in the right direction for that, but I bet that a Google search would turn
something up.
And if you want to know more about SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol), check out http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1157.html and
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2573.html. These are two RFCs for SNMP (Googled
on "RFC SNMP"). The search turned up some other articles, but these two are
the official requests for comments that detail the protocol.
HTH,
Will
