Unfortunately, simply installing the MIB file isn't enough for the agent to automatically provide the corresponding information. This typically requires writing some code. See the section CODING, and the on-line documentation.

It may sometimes be possible to achieve the same effect using the various extension directives, but this typically still involves providing a suitable script or command. The agent isn't magic and doesn't know how to locate the MIB information. Somebody has to tell it.
