Hi,

I've written a CFX tag that creates a simple and easy interface with SNMP-enabled 
entities.  I am curious of the community's need for such a tag.

The tag does the following:
* Provides a simple interface to the somewhat complex world of SNMP
* Probes multiple SNMP OIDs in a single datagram connection
* Returns an easy-to-use query data structure with the results

The tag currently performs GETs and WALKs through the SNMP OID tree.  Below is an 
example:

<CFX_SNMP
        OID="1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.2,1.3.6.1.2.1.25.5.1.1.2,1.3.6.1.2.1.25.5.1.1.1"
        host="#host#"
        Community="#communityString#"
        r_qResults="procInfo">

That call will actually return all NT processIDs, process memory usage, CPU time and 
process names in one QUERY (procInfo).  Once you have the data available in CF, you 
have unprecedented control over the data in backend structures.

I am trying to gauge the utility of such a tag as to determine whether i should bother 
to continue with development and QA.

Let me know your feelings either here or privately.

Thanks!
