The idea of the GETBULK request is that you supply a
single OID, and get back multiple results for the next {N}
instances.

This contrasts with the basic GETNEXT request,
where you receive one result for each OID in the
original request.

*All* of the basic SNMP protocol operations can take
multiple OIDs, and retrieve (or update) several values
in a single request.
   But most of them have a 1-1 correspondence between
the request and the response.  The distinguishing feature
of GETBULK is that there are *more* values in the response
than there were in the original request.
