title: Retrieve Hardware Informations through SNMP
body: <p>I am trying to retrieve hardware informations from a series of devices, so far I used snmpget/snmpwalk with the following OID <code>1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.2.1</code> but it returns very few informations, for example if I run this on my computer from a Windows OS I get those CPUs:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Unknown Processor</p>
  <p>Unknown Processor</p>
  <p>Unknown Processor</p>
  <p>Unknown Processor</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Instead if I run the command from Debian I get the correct value:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Genuine Intel: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 330 @ 2.13GHz</p>
  <p>Guessing that there's a floating point co-processor</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>I understand that Windows and Linux fill MIBs in a completely different way but, for istance, bot of them seem to completely forget about other devices such as video card or mouse/keyboard. Windows shows the keyboard correctly, Linux does not. Both of them don't show video card and sound card at all. Is the problem related to some options I have to set?</p>
  <p>And what if I want to obtain MORE informations such as CPU frequency?</p>
