Hi,

I'm currently writing an NMS (http://www.pimpmynetwork.org/observer/) which
uses SNMP to automatically guess the operating system of hosts and setup
graphing/monitoring accordingly.

The cut-down SNMP daemon in m0n0/pfsense massively reduces the number of
things I can monitor on m0n0, and I can't see a way to easily identify them
via SNMP using version strings or similar. I'm currently manually
identifying m0n0 boxes in the database, which then limits the amount of
information the application tries to poll/display.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to identify m0n0wall and pfSense via
SNMP? 

Could a simple change be made to allow them to be easily identified? (a
custom OID for pfSense giving out its version would be great!)

Perhaps an identifier and version could be appended to the FreeBSD kernel
version?

(sorry for cross-posting, and for those of you who've seen something very
similar on the m0n0 list!)

Thanks,
Adam.
