If it happens to be a Foundry switch there is already a
foundry-chassis.monitor that works great for monitoring that status of
power supplies, fans and modules. That combined with the ping monitor works
well. Even if it is not a Foundry switch the foundry-chassis.monitor can be
modified to monitor any SNMP capable switch. I have modified the
foundry-chassis.monitor to report on our CISCO 7507's router chassis
status.
