Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1872.2.5.3.3.2.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ALTEON-CHEETAH-NETWORK-MIB::arpCacheClear

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1872.2.5.3.3.2.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ALTEON-CHEETAH-NETWORK-MIB::arpCacheClear.1
