Try looking at the "extend" directive.
It's similar to "exec" but has a much richer MIB structure
(both configuring the command to be run, and interpreting the output)
It also has the advantage of this MIB structure being legal
(which "exec {OID}" is not!)

Have you looked at the DISMAN-TRACEROUTE-MIB ?
That is an existing, standard MIB structure for managing traceroute requests.
I don't know how much experience you have of designing MIB modules,
but it would be a sensible starting point.
