What options are available to you for querying the counter on the router?

If, for example, there is a command-line interface you could use then
you can at a pinch script something around that.  There are a bunch of
old AS400 plugins which I think do that kind of thing at
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Hardware/Server-Hardware/IBM/AS400/details
 - it might give you some ideas on how to go about it.
