I have some rapidly changing stats I want to report via SNMP. It would be terrific if I could do that in the IF-MIB interface table, but it's pretty hard to plug in my Perl subagent in just the right places.
I investigated creating a fake network device module but that seems too invasive for reporting stats. I can't use a 'dummy' network device because Linux doesn't allow me to set the net_device_stats data directly from userspace. So is there a way to lie to SNMP about the number of network interfaces and provide an extra one (with some stats) to it? I looked in the docs, Googled, etc. and am pretty stumped. Any help or pointers are appreciated.
