You're still 1/2 right though, since AFAIK there's no analogue for
CISCO-SWITCH-ENGINE-MIB::cseTcamUsageTable for anything but the 6500,
so from a network monitoring perspective you're still blind.

I'm sure I've brought it up here before, but its absence is
particularly bad in the DSBU switches given their limited capacity and
variability from 'sdm prefer' and the different models (ie. 3750G-12S
vs. all other 3750's).
