As far as I know, there is no way to find out the IP address of an ESX guest OS without connecting to it (eg by logging in to the virtual console), and therefore no way to SNMP query it. The ESX server doesnot actually know the guest's IP address(es), only the virtual switch towhich it has virtual network ports mapped.
That can't be true. VirtualCenter routinely tells me what IP address a guest VM is using.
Maybe there's some VC nonsense that happens, but it seems like you might be able to get at that info using the ESX Perl API or something?
