If you use snmptable, you have to give a table

$ snmptable -v 1 -c public zeus1.dev.shazamteam.net IF-MIB::ifTable

collectd uses a snmpwalk like.

$ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public zeus1.dev.shazamteam.net IF-MIB::ifDescr

Use SNMP v2c is better and can use get bulk with multiple OID in one 
PDU.

$ snmpbulkwalk -v 2c -c public zeus1.dev.shazamteam.net IF-MIB::ifDescr
