Hi Pallav,

if you just want to monitor, if the management-interface of the switch 
is  up or down, you can use check_icmp or something like that.
MIB-2 is a standart-MIB which suits for many different devices.

If you wanna monitor the fan, or the cpu-load or something like that, 
you need the corresponding OID from MIB-2 (or from some special 
Cisco-Mibs). However, this depends greatly on what you want to monitor. 
(Maybe you want to tell us? ;-) )

Greetz, Marcus
