Yes, if your network devices support SNMP, they can report via SNMP to
Nagios, and you can monitor anything your device is willing to report via
SNMP.

However, I have a set-up identical to yours, and am currently stalled at
getting the Net-SNMP and SNMP-Utils installed.  My server's missing
something that's preventing SNMP and MRTG from working.
