snmpd - customize ifNumber

Hello,

My x86 is connected via PCIe to an Intel's device. This device(ASIC)
is an ethernet switch (fm10k)
Intel provides a linux library + device driver for managing the switch
(e.g: read port status, set port speed).
I want to run snmpd on the x86 and fill the TODO with the relevant Intel's API.

Intel does not provide any SNMP infrastructure for this device.

I think it will be great if the x86 will run snmpd with some
customization and will monitor\manage the switch device.
Is it possible ?

What SNMP agent runs in all commercial switches. Is it not snmpd ?

My first step is to understand how to "convince" snmpd that the switch
has 16 ports.
The default is 4 which is the number if etherent devices in the x86.
This is of course not relevant for my needs.

I also tried to run example_demon.c
But in my case I do not have new MIBs. Just the standard ones.

Thank you,
Zvika
