[ale] dsl snmp monitor suggestions?

[Robert L. Harris]

Ok,
  I'm having some nasty problems with my dsl.  Occasionally it just
stops passing packets.  Due to something up stream, I couldn't traceroute
to me.  Supposedly they just opened it.  At any rate, this bugger does
snmp so I'd like to turn on some monitoring.  I have 2 boxes which are
headless, running debian woody.  Any suggestions on a good tool that'll
log every couple of seconds the current status, etc?  I want to put up
a daemon that will hit a remote site ssh port every minute and tell me
when I loose connectivity.  I can write this portion, but want a good
snmp tool that'll do some heavy probing of the router and logging so
I can find a correlation.
