If the two tables have the same indexing style (e.g. both indexed by
a single integer), then define one table in the normal manner:
dhcpSettingsEntry OBJECT-TYPE
:
INDEX { dhcpSettingsIndex }
:
and then define the other table as AUGMENTing the first:
dhcpIPRangeEntry OBJECT-TYPE
:
AUGMENTS { dhcpSettingsEntry }
:
If the second table has a more complex structure, then
the indexing of this table would look like:
dhcpIPRangeEntry OBJECT-TYPE
:
INDEX { dhcpSettingsIndex, dhcpIPRangeIndex }
:
where dhcpSettingsIndex is an object in the
dhcpSettingsTable, not the dhcpIPRangeTable.
There are examples of both of these styles in the
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB
See hrSWRunTable/hrSWRunPerfTable (AUGMENTS)
and hrDeviceTable/hrPartitionTable (shared INDEX)

The surprising thing is that you don't actually need
to worry about this when implementing the tables.
As long as the underlying data for the two tables is
consistent, you can implement the tables separately.
The underlying data is sufficient to form the linkage.
