On the particular switch line I was working with you couldn't find what MACs were behind specific ports as the switch didn't record them and instead in the SAME MIB field recorded just the MAC of the switch management interface. Made finding devices difficult as I could trace it down to a trunk (via core or distribution) but not past it at access. Super frustrating.
Oh! Yeah, that's a bug. Or at least a really shitty mis-feature. Most likely the specs for the switch carefully don't claim that it supports BRIDGE-MIB but some twit decided to provide a stub response instead of "noSuchName" in the error status.
