The way I would look up all community strings on a bunch of routers would be to either grep through my latest router config backups for the community string settings, or write an expect or perl script to login on each router and display the community string. Either of these methods gets more complex as your routers become more heterogeneous.
The community string acts as a (retarded) password in SNMP, so if it was something the MIB let you access, you would have to know it before you could query/trap for it (which kind of defeats the purpose, eh?)
