Enable / Disable MIB through snmp.conf

Hi All,

I was trying to disable a UDP-MIB.  By disable, I mean,  if that MIB
is disabled manager will not be able to retrieve the values from that
MIB.

For example, if I disable UDP-MIB, I will not be able to retrieve the
value udpInDatagrams.0 from agent using snmpget command.

I tried to achieve this by not defining the UDP-MIB in snmp.conf file
mibs section(attached with this mail),

but following command on local host always returned me the valid value.

$ snmpget -v 1 localhost -c public udpInDatagrams.0

The same snmp.conf file was put in /usr/local/etc/snmp/snmp.conf and
/root/.snmp/snmp.conf location and local snmpd daemon was restarted
after this change in snmp.conf file

Can somebody let me know what I might be missing?

Thanks and Regards,
Amar S Mudrankit
