I'd like to see a primer on SNMP. Searched Googled already of course but only find long dry descriptions of software and network devices. Would be nice with a howto explaining how snmp works for non-engineers, including the mib thing, how are the codes assigned, are there standard rules or are the mib's assigned in a more or less random fashion by the network device manufacturers, etc.
Edit: Never mind, found a good tutorial here:
