The short answer is "no"
The SNMP polling that netmon does is for his purposes, not yours, and he
would not know what to do with other variable values.
You can of course configure snmpCollect to gather whatever you want.
That's why their are two daemons in this product which do SNMP queries.

Subject:  [NV-L] SNMP Polling Customization



Hello all,

A quick question for configuring SNMP polling.  Assuming you have an SNMP
Agent and a correct MIB file, can you customize SNMP polling for additional
SNMP variables other than ifAdminStatus and ifOperStatus?  I know you can
poll for configuration changes and perform data collections, but I'm
interested in what it would take to periodically poll an SNMP device for
customized variables not only the defaults.  Thanks in advance for any
input.
