That is the big question, I think the answer is that some vendors
provide this in extension MIBs but there is no common support for
ETHERLIKE with SNMP on hosts, which is too bad.  This is a huge
undertaking but would be a huge win for Net-SNMP if it does not
provide this information already.

On the other hand, you could 'hack' support for this in by extending
the agent with a script that works for the environments you are
managing, not ideal but workable if you are in control / have say with
the people who administer the hosts you manage in your environment.
