    Or better a clean MIB Import feature in conjunction with truely dynamic templates.
    But "dynamic subtree tables", as i call them, would be almost as useful and way less complex to implement.

    We would like to have a possibility to create(define in snmp templates) some kind of dynamic subtree tables when monitoring a snmp device.

    An example would be a list of disks in a raidset.
    row1: title:disk model, Base OID to return the subtree with all the disk models
    row2: title:smart state, Base OID to return the subtree with smart state of all disks
    row3: title:health state, Base OID to return the subtree with health state of all disks

    this would a powerful way of extending the existing template solution which is quite static imho.
    yes, in the existing way, we can manuall specify all the disks when adding the device. the templates themselfs are static. so when different systems with a different amount of disks in a raidset should be monitored, the template functionality as it is now is of limited help and always needs lots of manual modification to monitor the different raids, etc...
    also, if the raid(in this example) gets expanded with additional disks, the technician has to remember to adjust the OIDs in atera so the additional disks are monitored. with the functionality of dynamic subtree tables, this could be circumvented (additional disks, etc. are automatically added to the monitoring)
    this eliminates human error and will also dispaly information like this in a much more human readable fashion - and it would greatly enhance the snmp template functionality.
