I want to see all of the stuff that is sent in radius stop packets
included. Things like the the session ID to match the info up with
radacct packets; cumulative traffic in/out; cumulative seconds (pmconsole
can't give it with that precision); the static/dynamic IP assigned; and so
forth.
I'm afraid I don't have a strong handle on the limits of SNMP ( I stopped
exploring it as soon as I figured out the portmaster's SNMP could not
provide this kind of info). But I would think there could be an
somewhere.ports.number
somewhere.ports.info.#.username
.sessionid
.time
.octetsin
.octetsout
.user-service
.protocol
.speed
.errorsin
.errorsout
.portname
Basically, each serial interface has certain information that the
portmaster already knows about it: physical characteristics,
configuration, statistics, state (including current connection). All of
this information should be presented with SNMP. A new COMOS version
should automatically have a new MIB that includes everything that has been
added. (Yes, its a pain for the sysadmins, but I think it would be worth
it.)
Really, *anything* that the portmaster knows should be made available via
SNMP, though that's probably asking a bit much ;-).
