It doesn't matter. The MIB handler can explicitly return a noSuchInstance or noSuchObject exception, or simply return without setting a value at all. The main agent driving code will recognise this, and move on to the next registered MIB region. > 1. Can this cause calling table handlers in a loop or in > non-lexicographical order..? No - it shouldn't do. The main agent driving code will move on to the next MIB region. > 2.

Correct. The agent will move on to the next registered region. If there isn't one, then it will respond with endOfMibView.
