Turns out I can snmpwalk all over that bad boy, so I can at least grab
the sysUpTime number from it and flag red if it's been up less than
[some number] of seconds.  I can ping it too, so I have both conn and
uptime columns.  I can even see traffic on the tcp interfaces, but I'm
not sure if I want to deal with that.

I'm still waiting to hear from our people if there's a C compiler.  If
there is, it's all good... :)
