This is really something that would need to be arranged with your customers. They could either configure their firewalls to accept SNMP traffic from your management systems, or set up a VPN connection to these systems so that you appear to be on the local network. The HTTP protocol isn't really suitable for tunnelling SNMP traffic, IMO It would be more usual to have an SNMP application running on the customers webserver - probably something specifically tailored to the management tasks you need to perform. But whatever you decide, this needs to be done in consultation with your customers.
