check_snmp doesn't do a walk. You must be very specific to the exact OID you
want to check. You'll also need to specify failure criteria if you want to get
any kind of alert.

I used the following combination --
define command {
command_name check_bgp_peer_state
command_line $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o
.1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2.$ARG1$ -s 6 -C $USER3$ -l 'BGP Peer $ARG1$ State'
}
define service{
use generic-service
host_name myhost
service_description iBGP-to-othernet
retry_check_interval 3
contact_groups nateng-oncall-network
check_command check_bgp_peer_state!212.12.10.11
}
