It's either handled as a single request, or broken down into individual
GetNext requests - depending on how the handler was registered.
The final parameter of the netsnmp_create_handler_registration()
indicates what types of request the handler can cope with.

In particular, unless it explicitly registers GetBulk support,
then the agent helpers will assume it *can't* handle GetBulk
itself, so will split such requests into a series of GetNext calls.

That's probably what's happening here.
