It will list whatever information is given in that /proc file.
Presumably all interfaces visible on the system where
the agent is running.

Unless you've done some very clever low-level programming,
I'd expect the agent to be running on the main device, rather
than on an individual ethernet card.

But embedded systems are really outside the scope of the
core development team.  We're more concerned with providing
the basic Net-SNMP toolkit and agent framework.   If you want
to know the details of how this might have be adapted for a
particular embedded system, you would be better off asking
the developers of that system, rather than here.
