I did not find the time and equipment for testing so I used snmpwalk to write a file and read it just like any normal file or /proc. Processing the output of snmpwalk just got me the "normal" log file I was interested in. I tried writing back into snmp variables but I never got a HP Procurve switch to do what I wanted. When they used different MIBs for different families of their switches, I gave up. Now I see linux boxes most of the time. They all use different MIBs for different things. Reading /proc is much easier and there a fewer differences between the machines. The soho stuff I find mostly uses web interfaces sometimes a real linux with a real log but almost never snmp. Looks sad, but I am still interested as it could make things a lot easier.
