Can I suggest that you try with an snmpd.conf line of

    extend  swap_percent  /etc/snmp/bin/check_swap_pct.bash

(i.e. the same line, but without specifying an OID).

Then run

    snmpwalk ..... NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendObjects

That should give you the same basic output, but display it using
named MIB objects (rather than purely numeric OIDs).
   Once you've got a feel for the structure of this information,
you can revert to the version based under enterprises.7594.400,
with a better understanding of what the individual objects mean.

You might even wish to take a copy of the NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB,
renaming the MIB, and rooting it at enterprises.7594.400 instead of
nsExtendObjects.
   That would allow your "relocated" output to be displayed by
name as well.


But the simplest thing to start with would be to temporarily
drop the explicit OID altogether.
