Hello all,

I'm setting up a firewall and would like to monitor certain system
parameters like network, cpu, and memory usage. SNMP is an obvious
choice to do the monitoring and I'm planning to set up rrdtool to
generate graphs of captured data. The question is what SNMP agent to
use. I found net-snmp and bsnmpd (which is included in the base
system). Has anyone here used both implementations, and if so, what
are the basic differences?

Thanks,
Max
