I am new to the usage of general SNMP management systems, such as Zennos.  
Also, I wish to manage something which is not a classic communications network. 
 Instead, we wish to manage a number of items of mailing machinery, in various 
locations, each location containing a number of SNMP nodes within a single IP 
sub-net.  Like communication SNMP nodes, each machinery node has a number of 
get/set parameters which control the operation of the node (or present 
performance parameters) and a number of pre-defined events (traps).

My first question is; is zennos configurable to the extent it will accommodate 
such new types of nodes ?  In other words, is Zennos solely for the support of 
communications networks or is it flexible to the extent that it will 
accommodate management of nodes which are of a different topology and behaviour 
(as long as they support SNMP rules and functionality.

Secondly, the demonstration video on the Zennos site only demonstrates 
monitoring functionality;  what is the mechanism for editing node parameters ?  
For example ( as an illustration only ), once you have found out that a bearer 
is overloaded, you might, for example, want to open up a node on the screen and 
"set" the routing priority for that bearer.

Thank you in anticipation of any guidance you can give
