[c-nsp] SNMP descrepancy

Actually, the 'public at 643' community he has there gives the table for
VLAN 643.

And I've seen that sort of thing before, and it seems to be random
(there's probably some rhyme or reason, but I've learned that if I get
the table via SNMP multiple times, at different times of day, it
eventually catches it all).

This is the dot1dTpFdb i.e. the "sh mac-address"; and by default, its 
just for vlan 1.

Because you're polling the wrong oid?

ipNetToMedia is the arp table.
