net-snmp does have an implementation of this table - README.agent-mibs says:

 table/object group           OS       Rel   Styl File
==============================================================================
...
IP-MIB
...
 ipNetToPhysicalTable         (implemented as inetNetToMediaTable)
 inetNetToMediaTable          L         5.2     M ip-mib/=/*

The "L" says that there's a Linux implementation of ipNetToPhysicalTable.
And in fact, I can query this table on a Fedora machine running 5.7.2.

What OS are you using? How did you build your net-snmp?
