snmpwalk doesn't trawl the whole MIB, it only looks at the SNMPv2-MIB,
IF-MIB and RFC1213-MIB.

Most devices have some additional stuff hidden away in the enterprises
MIB, which you can usually get with:

    snmpwalk -v 2c -c COMMUNITYNAME hostname enterprises

Of course, all the OIDs are numeric, looking something like
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.2.4.1.1.5.150.101.0.49.  If you have a MIB
file from your vendor installed in the right place, the UCD SNMP tools
will be able to display the OID names symbolically.
