Hello,

If your device is supporting SNMP and if there are MIB files available, I recommend creating a custom SNMP sensor. In detail this is described here.

Seems for 5020 or 220, there is no mib available for this, an option is using python script to monitor it. I made a script for our environment, tested with 5020 and 220 appliances. https://github.com/bill831231/bill831231.github.io/blob/master/PRTGScript/check_ps.py
