The TNT docs in admin/tntsnmp.htm#140055 describe the Ascend MIB hierarchy
quite clearly. I'd guess that the Max 6k docs do the same. They just don't
detail what, exactly, each object is.

Note that there's a typo in advancedAgent. It's 1.3.6.1.4.1.529.4, not
1.3.6.1.4.1.529.1 as given.

I found all the OIDs I'm tracking from the docs and past posts to this list.
