Research direction
Start by reproducing check_interfaces -h 192.168.x.x -c public against a MikroTik switch with SNMP enabled, then inspect the code handling the response that reports tooBig. Done means MikroTik interface checks complete without the error while the existing Cisco behavior remains working.

Describe the bug
When i try to check a mikrotik switch, ex with: check_interfaces -h 192.168.x.x -c public i receive the following error:
Error in packet
Reason: (tooBig) Response message would have been too large.
On our old cisco switch all work as expected. I tested it with different models.
How to recreate the bug?
Enable snmp on the switch and do a request from monitoring host.
