in theory, but I haven't found the precise syntax yet.

In a cluster, Cisco appends a tag to the community string, so to see cluster
member 1, you use public at es1, for cluster member 15, it is public at es15

Within the mrtg cfg file, you can encode this as 1:public\@es1 at 192.168.1.1

I haven't figured out how to convince cfgmaker to deal properly with @'s
yet.  I've tried escaping them with \ and \\, but it always seems to get
lost somewhere.  snmpwalk is fine, but cfgmaker dies.
