I have a problem that's sort of 90 degrees off from this, but similar
conceptually... 
We run Trango Broadband radios here; all the APs (hub) and SUs (spoke)
are monitorable via SNMP, with one big caveat... the AP counters are
all accessible normally, but all the SU counters cannot be polled
directly, they must be collected from the AP under an enterprises
subtree.

So... I need to monitor devices A, B, and C (in terms of reachability,
etc., as well as perf graphs) but the data for devices A, B & C has to
come from device X.

Is this possible with Zenoss today?  How would I go about doing this?
