Very cool.
I'd be willing to help point someone in the right direction on how do
actually do some native types that did something very similar.
That is, you could have a type that provided this model of what
attributes existed and what the values were, and then you could have a
provider on the backend that knew how to talk to the router via
snmpset and snmpget, etc. That should actually be pretty simple and
would be a great start.
