none that does CIDR AFAIK. In the more (or less depending on your point of
view) pathological cases, ssh and use sh ip route syntax -- pretty easy to
automate that in a script but harder to parse output...pick your poison and
hope that ops-nm beats vendors into producing machine parseable output even
when there isn't an SNMP MIB OID.
