Mysterious ".0" at the end of SNMP OID in Quagga

Hello net-snmp community,

I'm one of the main developers of the new EIGRP routing protocol daemon 
for Quagga routing suite. As we came to SNMP support implementation, we 
realized that to correctly get any of the SNMP values using particular 
OID, you need to add the mysterious ".0" at the end.

So for example when I want to get OSPF Router ID, instead of using 
snmpget 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.1.1, I need to write snmpget 
1.3.6.1.2.1.14.1.1*.0*. The same situation we can see in our fresh 
implementation in new daemon. So, it looks like there is problem 
somewhere beyond Quagga, probably in net-snmp libraries.

Do anybody know something about this behaviour please? I'm just curious 
if it's a bug, or a feature :P

Thank you very much for response.

Jan Janovic
