They are.

I'm currently working on SNMP on the RX8200, which is the successor to the
RX1290. There's a limit to what I can tell you (customer confidentiality),
but I might be able to help at some point.

My immediate recommendation would be to get hold of snmpb - it's available
on sf.net. I know going to a GUI browser is something of a cop-out, but
it's made my ilfe a whole lot easier.
Probably best to stay away from pysnmp too - it has "interesting" features
when you try to fetch OIDs that aren't in its current set of MIBs (and
requires a translation to get "standard" MIB files into it).
