It's not built into the Net-SNMP agent,
but you could always configure an "extend" directive to report this information.

Something like

    extend   dmi   /usr/bin/dmidecode

and then query the tables nsExtendOutput1Table and/or nsExtendOutput2Table

There looks to be a lot of useful information there,
so it's probably something we could sensibly make use of!
