In fact, you don't need to choose between implementing this as
a seperate sub-agent versus built in (or a dynamic loaded module).
The MIB module API is identical for all three mechanisms.

So you can develop the module as a separate subagent, and then
simply re-compile the agent to include it directly.  Or vice versa -
develop it within the main agent (to avoid one level of indirection)
and then recompile the same code into a separate subagent.

The MIB processing code (that you'll be writing) is exactly the
same in each case - it's just the surrounding framework (most
of which we provide) that's different.
