Energy/Power Monitoring

check_netint can give alert at very low traffic but I warn you to be
careful because if you do not have a lot of traffic (do you really have
10Mbs there?) it will look as if its 0. Also I'm entirely unsure how you
can check it with SNMP if it has no ip address, can you explain?

if device supports snmp and is using standard snmp unix base you can use
any other snmp plugin too just to check on it, I like doing it with
check_uptime. I use that as base to tell if SNMP is working and put
dependencies for other services on it.
