Monitoring Cisco 3750 stacks - OIDs or traps ?

[Stanley.Hopcroft at Dest.gov.au]

Dear Folks,

We like many others have happily deployed the Cisco 370 stackable
switch/routers in stacked
configurations.

Please would anyone with experience of monitoring these units with
Nagios comment on
how best to monitor the performance of the internals.

I am particuarly interested in checking that all the switches in the
stack are
present and correct. 

There appear to be 3 ways of checking this

1 Net::Telnet and parsing the output of 'show inventory'

2 Some OID with check_by_snmp (possibly from the CISCO-STACK-MIB)

3 Traps from the stack manager

What experience have people had with these methods ?

Thank you,

Yours sincerely.
