WhatsUp Gold is not able to monitor the kind of OID that you are receiving.
I logged this one as a Feature Request a few weeks ago. Here's how I phrased it: Some vendors stuff all sorts of info into a single OID. Example, from SmartBridge Air Point Pro Outdoor: NetworkSettings.0=00 00 00 05 5d ed 72 ea 00 01 1e 01 00 04 03 00 82 84 8b 96 42 45 4e 00 49 4e 4b 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 Only part of this payload is of interest. SNMPMon should be able to use the Regular Expression Tool to be able to pick out exactly what is of interest in the payload. Futhermore, it should be possible to specify a conversion on the result. For instance, in the above example it is desired to monitor the RSSI which is the 11th byte. The RSSI value is 1e hex so HEX to INTEGER conversion would give a signal strength of 40 (percent) This value can then be directly compared against the standard SNMPMOn threshold field to determine whether there is an UP or DOWN. Additionally, portions of strings could be matched against - for example the IOS version of a switch could be plucked out of the system description (1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0) example: Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-IS40-L), Version 11.2(5)P, SHARED PLATFORM, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) Copyright (c) 1986-1997 by cisco Systems, Inc.

I need to be able to monitor the 29th and 30th pair (converting it to decimal). In this case these would be the first instance of 02 E8. Anybody have an idea as to how (or if) this is possible?
