The following vendor agents have been beat upon with this tool with the
following results. This file should not be considered endorsement nor flame
against any manufacturer its just our results with the various equipment:

-- Livingston (Lucent) Pormasters (all variations of this thing).
   Very quick and responsive. No snmp related problems found. Works
   across a modem connection, through a frame-relay, across a satillite etc..
   What would you expect from livingston?
   The only problems we have discovered with the Lucent equipment as of yet
   is on the writes, the write takes place just fine its the ASN 1 response 
   from the unit gets all munged up. After close examination we determined
   its one of them famous buffer overruns in the ComOS, its not security
   related so I don't suspect it will be corrected anytime soon.

-- IBM (aix)
   This works rather nicely (surprised the hell out of me)

-- Linux (cmu)
   This works, though its a bit hairy setting it up on the linux side.

-- WellFleet (Baynetworks)
   so-so in the results here. When it works it works very nicely. 
   Though this isn't limited to just this program, their own software
   screws up constantly. 

-- Cisco
   Hmm... This is a problem. could be a configuration problem on our ciscos
   but I'm not sure I'd really like some feedback on this one.
   For jochen these work ok: 
   - 3000 Software (IGS-K), Version 9.1(10)
   - IOS (tm) 5200 Software (C5200-I-L), Version 11.2(8)P
   - IOS (tm) 1000 Software (C1000-Y-M), Version 11.2(6)
   However, obey the golden rule for Cisco: never trust the private MIB!

-- 3com
   It works ok.. A bit sluggish at times.

-- Visual Networks (HP WanProbes)
   It works ok.. However, their probes have the most interesting stuff in 
   the enterprise branch, and there seems to be no public MIB :(.

-- NBase
   It works ok.

-- ADC Kentrox
   Pacesetter PRO   -- Works just fine, haven't managed to locate the private
                       mib description file as yet.


If you have experience or other results mail em to me and I'll update this
file.
