Cool, good suggestion.  Right now I have the specs file hard coded, but 
if we were to buy and deploy a pair of these I'd use your method.

For those bipIPs, are the OIDs in the f5-bigip template still valid? 
I'm not getting any data at all for those, although I can do an snmpwalk 
of the bigip and get data for other stuff and I'm sure our sales 
engineer enabled snmp access for us.

Only asking this stuff so I don't spend the next couple of hours redoing 
something that doesn't need to be done...

Thanks,
Tom
