Joe I would encourage you to look at /usr/ports/net/ucd-snmp for snmp software. I would think that with a little research and /usr/ports/net/mrtg you could probably monitor just about aspect of anything under the sun that speaks snmp. Its my understanding that with a little perl, mrtg will monitor just about anything, even if it doesn't speak snmp.
