The mapping between numeric OIDs and MIB object names is handled by the MIB files loaded by the client. See the FAQ entry "How do I add a MIB to the tools" for further details. Note that the information returned by the agent is exactly the same. regardless of whether or not the relevant MIBs are available to the client. These MIB files are purely used for how the client application will *display* the information returned from the agent.
