ITU has specified MIBs (TMN not SNMP) for SS7.  They are contained
in the Q.75x recommendations.  For SIGTRAN M3UA there is a MIB draft
in the works which you can get from:

  ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-sigtran-m3ua-mib-01.txt

I have already included the managed objects, stats and traps in the
code and provided access to them (on management stream as well as
via procfs).  What would be useful eventually would be a user-space
Agent which talks to the stack (or procfs) and the outside world via
SNMP or CMOT.

No, I haven't updated the website in a little while.  We are
currently completing a SIGTRAN stack which consists of SCTP,
M2PA, M2UA, M3UA and SUA for OpenSS7.  We are targetting completion
for the end of July (this month).

I was hoping to revamp the website somewhat with the release
of the sigtran stack.  Stay tuned.
