How to receive SNMP MIB dump data?

I have a SNMP MIB dump from a device and would like request the (static) data via SNMP-Agent (net-snmp). The SNMP MIB dump looks like:

.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 = STRING: "xxx"
...

Where can I place the static SNMP MIB dump and how can I request the static values instead of a dynamic value, which are generate by the SNMP-agent? My SNMP-MIBs are located in /usr/share/snmp/mibs/.

This is what a "SNMP Simulator" does, and much more. The good ones can change data dynamically, run many agents simultaneously, create simulations in many ways including importing from 3rd party walkfile, etc. Since Andrew posted a link to his product, we post a link to ours http://www.gambitcomm.com/ and a pretty picture

The NET-SNMP Agent is not designed this way. So you can not just load some data into it. You'll have to use so called SNMP Simulators that allow you to load and use any MIB files and your own data including snmpwalk dumps. The good example of such tool is NetDecision Smart Agent (http://www.netmechanica.com/products/?prod_id=1019). It allows you to load MIB dumps produced by net-snmp commands like snmpwalk (Import data option).
