That is an interesting question that (I think) was part of a
to-be-done gap analysis in the COMAN draft. The main question would be
if SNMP has too much overhead for constrained devices and networks
(both in terms of payload and stack size). Has anyone deployed SNMP in
such networks and on constrained devices?

Best regards
