I am no expert, but I also run snmpd and a custom sub agent configuration.
Your sub agent should be registering with the master what OIDs it will
handle:
One line for each MIB.
REGISTER_SYSOR_TABLE(companyx_oid, companyx_oid_len, "Top level MIB for
Company products");
REGISTER_SYSOR_TABLE( companyx_base_oid, companyx_base_oid_len, "MIB
for Company base OIDs");
REGISTER_SYSOR_TABLE( companyx_events_oid, companyx_events_oid_len,
"MIB for Company notifications and traps");
REGISTER_SYSOR_TABLE( companyx_mgmt_oid, companyx_mgmt_oid_len, "MIB
for Company Mgmt");
