title: SNMP from the browser
body: <p>There"s this idea of having a web app search for devices in the network (with elevated user permissions, of course).  </p>
  
  <p>Checking the silverlight and flash APIs, there does not seem to be a way to do SNMP ( the UDP APIs are limited to multicasting media ).</p>
  
  <p>Anyone know a clever workaround? In windows, a small XBAP utility can do the SNMP stuff, but that leaves out the Mac OS X platform.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any ideas.</p>
