Check the access control settings for your agent.

Why can't I set any variables in the MIB?
----------------------------------------
There are three possible reasons for this:
Many MIB objects are defined as "read-only" and inherently cannot be
changed via SET requests. Attempts to do so will typically be rejected
by the 'snmpset' command without ever being sent to the agent.
Of those objects that can in principle be changed, the agent may not
include the code necessary to support SET requests. (GET and GETNEXT
are much easier to handle - particularly for objects relating to the
internals of the underlying operating system).
Even if SET support has been implemented, the agent may not be configured
to allow write access to this object.
Ready-installed distributions (such as those shipped with Linux) tend
to be configured with read-only access to part of the mib tree (typically
just the system group) and no write access at all.
To change this, you will need to set up the agent's access control
configuration. See the AGENT section for more details.
Note that neither the community string "public" nor "private" can be
used to set variables in a typical default configuration.
