iso.3.6.1.4.1 signifies an enterprise. The next number is the Private 
Enterprise Number (PEN), anything after that is up to the enterprise to define 
the meaning of.

So yes and no (but mostly no !). If the first enterprise number (PEN) belongs 
to your organization (ie. you work for enterprise_1), you can put whatever you 
like after it and it will take your meaning – call the next number a second 
enterprise identifier if you like, but it’s just part of enterprise_1’s MIB and 
has no special meaning other than what you wish it to mean and no-one would 
know it is intended to refer to an IANA registered PEN unless you told them.

Whereas anyone familiar with snmp would know that enterprise1_oid was an IANA 
enterprise number because of the iso.3.6.1.4.1 prefix regardless of whether 
they had read your documentation.
