Expanding the support for SNMP monitoring of FreeBSD systems using our native SNMP pieces is something I've had on my "Someday" todo list for ages. I'd really like to see this happen (hence adding it to Murray's list :-). Being able to claim that FreeBSD can be monitored out of the box using SNMP (assuming an admin twiddle is set) would be quite useful from a "make your embedded X out of FreeBSD" perspective. Especially if it were easy to say "Let the interfaces be monitored", "Let the VM system be monitored", "Let users be monitored" as configurable items so (for example) firewall vendors could enable network interface monitoring but not user monitoring.
