monitoring cpu

I have a windows snmp server running prtg. I have a solaris 8 v440R server and only see the network statistics for the server. When I try to add a new service to watch for the CPU, I am not offered the results. There is the default sun.mib installed. SNMPDX is not running but mibiisa is.

I would like to monitor CPU usage on the server. How can I set this up? Where can I get the mibs? I can enter a mib in prtg for a server to poll, but I don't have the mibs. I think I could do an snmpwalk once I get the mib.

I am also thinking that prtg might require v2 of snmp, but I don't know. I DID NOT SET UP THESE BOXES ORIGINALLY.

Any suggestions. I can no imagine this being overly complicated.

Thank you
