The first thing you should do is sit down and analyse exactly what information
you want to retrieve from these devices, and exactly how you need to
control them.

Then you should look at the existing MIBs (both those supplied with Net-SNMP
and standard IETF MIBs), to see if there's anything that already matches these
requirements.

Only then is it time to consider writing your own MIB file.
