Sorry if this is what you were already alluding to - but since Comcast blocks SNMP, you
could implement the SNMP proxy into PyDECnet and make it an opt-in feature.
I would have no issues with you relaying SNMP requests via my PyDECnet instance, and I
suspect others would be fine with it as well.
Cheers, Wiz!!

Subject: [HECnet] Re: An example of non-optimal setup
I made a stab at that a while ago; it isn't all that difficult. The problem I ran
into is that Comcast has a mental problem, they filter SNMP traffic outbound
so I can't query anyone's MIB. The solution would be to build an SNMP
proxy, which would be easy enough, and install that on some helpful server.
A random thought: I wonder if it would be interesting for PyDECnet to
implement the DECnet MIB.
