Using C# to manage an Extreme Extremeware based switch via SNMP

This is to provide an example of a plug-in I wrote for the Green Monster System to manage an Extreme Networks ExtremeWare based switch.  This is there older line of switches

Most of these commands were determined via many hours with network sniffer as the MIBs do not expose the OIDs used here.

The SNMP commands are performed via a base class that uses Nsoftware's SSNMP library.  That class is not included because of licensing.

If you need help or have questions feel free to send me mail.
