The OID depends on what you want to look for. So first os all, get yourself 
sure, what you want to monitor. CPU load, temperature of the divice, package 
or octet throughput (if yes: on what port), ...? When you walked through the 
MIB fo your device you will see that the switch delivers a lot of 
information.
