The most likely reason is that the agent doesn't include code to handle
SET requests for these failing objects, on that particular O/S.

You haven't said which version of the agent you are using,
but certainly the traditional implementation of the IP-MIB scalar
objects  (see mibgroup/mibII/ip.c) was read-only.
   The newer version (mibgroup/ip-mib/ip-scalars.c) seems to
include some SET support, but I'm not sure whether this is
implemented for FreeBSD systems.

That's certainly the most likely reason.
