Then v3/v1 is not the only difference between the two commands. You
have MIBs available in your v3 environment, but not your v1 environment.
Passing `-M ""` to your v3 getnext command will make it display the .iso.3
format.

`-M all`
Make sure you have your MIBDIRS env var pointed to the right place.
See the snmpcmd man page for full details. I recommend reading that page top
to bottom.

That's `-OS`. Now go read the page to show how thankful you are. ;-)
