But, with SMUX I need a intermediary, or not?

My idea, I have a PC(1) with Quagga, and other PC(2) with MRTG (monitoring
software), and I want to ask some variables from PC(2) to PC(1) without
intermediate software.
For example, I want to ask which is the value of "ip_forward" in PC(1) from
PC(2).

Thanks.
