If you are using separate "snmpget" shell commands for each request, then these will indeed be regarded as completely separate, and will probe for the boot/time values every time. If you code this your management application as a single process, and use C-level calls to send the GET requests (using the same netsnmp_session structure), then this will remember and reuse the boot/time values. Thus avoiding the re-probe. > Need snmpd to be run on the server for that ? No - that is completely irrelevant.

It's still needed two snmpget requests to get response. That's because you are throwing away the information from the first request, rather than keeping it for the second. Use a single netsnmp_session structure to send both requests, and everything should be fine.
