All logic says it either throws an exception or finishes correctly. It may
be the lib you use is not throwing when it should but I'm not familiar with
the SNMP lib you're using. Where did you get the identifier "ifPhysAddress"=
?
Did you define its OID somewhere?

Use snmpget, snmpwalk and snmpbulk* from libnetsnmp utils.

ifPhysAddress is just a user friendly name of a numerical OID (in the form
of 1.3.6.1...). Check the link I posted before, you can find a lot of OIDs
there.

I'd recomend reading some RFCs and manuals, get used to the protocol and
they way it works and then write an application using it, not otherwise.
