OIDs in SNMP are restriced to 128 subidentifier maximum. If you index a table by an OID, you will run over the 128 subidentifier limit. So the index should have a size restriction but the SMI does not allow you to define such a size restriction for OIDs.
[This seems to be a frequently asked question. Frank, do you have time to start a file where we just collect these things?]
