[cisco-voip] PRI monitoring

[Mike King]

I've been wondering about the High Water Mark,
http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=Translate&objectInput=cpmActiveDS0sHighWaterMark

but it appears you can only clear it via the "clear controller
call-counters", and not some kind of SNMP set.
http://www.ciscosystems.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_1t/12_1t2/feature/guide/dtclds02.html

Maybe you can script it to reset it once an hour?

I think long term, it would be better if it could be cleared via SNMP
get of some kind.  (I'm not really down with it being a value that is
reset just by reading it)
