Nagios works well for me (and many others) although Nag is not an SNMP 
manager.

If you want small to medium (up to about 10k services __with__ tuning)
monitoring of services - including checking on OID vals, Nag is your
animal.

If OTOH you want something that handles traps or traffic monitoring you 
need to supplement Nag with other stuff (may include Cricket and or 
MRTG or snmptt or ..).

me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
