snmp examples of new field 'thresholds to performance data' in oid-files

[mdicss]

Hi all
The snmp check changed in the last release of the plugins. Can someone give an explanation, what the new field 'thresholds to performance data' in oid-files exactly should do. It would be helpful to have some more examples with oid-files containing values for this field too.

Should be already described here: https://github.com/Linuxfabrik/monitoring-plugins/tree/main/check-plugins/snmp

Sorry, but for me, the description is a bit to short. I did a series of tests too and did not really find out, what this property does and what the difference to the warn and crit fields is.
But you'r right, now I see what the field does. For me, this is a bit surprising, as you may define other values there, that do not correspond to the used warn and critical thresholds defined in the other fields.

Please feel free to improve the documentation from your perspective. We always welcome suggestions for improvement.

ok. It would be nice to have an option, to write the defined values for warn and critical in the performance data instead of repeating them or even write some other values in the performance data.
