Great! That's it, I read the wrong documentation. I can now add a line 
for any OID I need and snmpwalk returns the right result.

There's only one thing in the output, which might cause some trouble. 
Here's what I get:

SNMPV2-SMI::entrprises.10190.1 = STRING: "hello world"
Error: OID not increasing: SNMPV2-SMI::enterprises.10190.1
 >= SNMPV2-SMI::enterprises.10190.1

Since snmpwalk can not get the next OID, this error make sense to me. 
When I use snmpget instead of snmpwalk I only get the expected output.

Do you agree that an external application like the OP-Manager use 
snmpget because an application is only interested in a single value?
If this is true, the app should see the error message, but only the 
value it is expecting.
Or is there a way to avoid this message completely?

Thanks for your help,

Stefan
