the interface mib in SNMP MIB-2 should give you the speed, where the device
knows what that is, and if you can get at it. On a cisco you can look at the
interface status using the command line.
e.g. on a cisco router, the mib should give the operating speed on a 10/100
ethernet port.
however, a lot of devices dont have a way to figure out the speed of a
serial port since this depends on the device providing clock and isnt
reported to the router - usually that defaults to 1.5 M or 64k, depnding on
code level and so on - the config may need to be manually set to get this
right.
Duplex is harder, but there are interface type specific mibs that hold stuff
like this.
1 other thing - SNMP MIBs are traditionally not thoroughly tested - dont be
surprised if the info SNMP tells you doesnt agree with other sources - often
the SNMP is the wrong bit.
