Sorry, I wasn't explicit enough. I'm well aware of these capabilities. I'm looking for something similar to systat in that one tool has access to all the data pulled by netstat | kvm | icmp | ip | tcp | udp | iostat | vmstat | etc | etc and can write this information to a flat file.
A similar type capability to compare on Solaris is SymbEL (http://www.setoolkit.com) which pulls information directly from the kstat driver. This is what Orca (http://www.orcaware.com) uses on Solaris systems to collect a large amount of information from Solaris systems.
I've never compared what SNMP provides to what systat displays but I would think certain statistics don't show up in SNMP.
