First thing to do is see what MIBs the Tranzeo unit's SNMP agents
support.  Check and see if they implement

MIB-II
IF-MIB

Those MIBs cover basic interface statistics along with IP and
<proto>/IP statistics (.e.g UDP, TCP).

After that there are a number of scripts available that will help
monitor the SNMP agent on the device.  Nagios comes with an check_snmp
plugin; if that does not suit your needs you can search
nagiosexchange.org or Google and you will find many others as well :).
