you could try write up a SNMP table query if the switch support reporting those counters. I've written many probes with tables in them. They are pretty trivial to write. The only issue is that you can't take actions on values reported by tables, so if you want to alert, you'd have to make probes poke singular OIDs. Afaik, they are different in every switch, though.
