        That's an approach that I've also used successfully for years.

        I have found from time to time that some MIB data hierarchy
        which I've been depending on is deprecated or abandoned by the 
        equipment manufacturer in favour of some "other part of the
        forest".  

        In such a case, I've found it necessary to explore the new
        or updated equipment using

snmpwalk -v2c -cwhatever domain-name-or-ip-address . >some-file

        and use the results to guide modic=fications to my script.

        As you probably know, that '.' specifies the root OID, 
        so that the entire tree is matched.  

        I don't know whether this will help, or is even relevant, in
        your situation, but it may be worth a try.

        Best regards,
        Niall O'Reilly
