Where art thou, SNMP?

dsrtaoMy office has a new toaster oven. Toasting requires:
- push a button to change from MODE EXECUTE READY (STANDBY) to ON.
- push the TOAST button
- select the darkness with up/down controls and an LCD display
- push START
It comes with a DVD to teach you how to use it.
Inexplicably, it does not have a serial port, an ethernet port, WiFi, nor does it speak SNMP or even Toaster Control Protocol. I guess you have to pay more for a remotely managed toaster.
