Yes , I do .

But i didn't use SNMP for async port usage. I use a little perl script instead. this perl script is using pmwho.

#! /usr/local/bin/perl

$count = 0 ;

open(file,"/usr/local/bin/pmwho|") ;

while (<file>) { chop ; if (/S(\d+)/) {

if ($1 >= $ARGV[0] && $1 <= $ARGV[1]) { $count ++ ; } }

}

printf("%d\n",$count) ; printf("%d\n",$count) ; printf("x\n") ; printf("sl.sl.pf\n") ;

--------

ARGument are the range of ports to consider.

regards

Gilles.
