Here's one simple example:
snmpwalk -v 2c -c COMMUNITYSTRING IPADDRESS .1
The .1 on the end is the starting point for the walk. .1 is the root of the hierarchy so that should walk everything available. I explicitly did version 2c, but depending on the implementation you are walking you may need to indicate '-v 1'
There is some way to ask net-snmp not to resolve the OID names for you so you can just get the numbers but I can't remember it off the top of my head.
One thing that can often hang you up is a lot of devices or the firewalls in front of them will block snmp access or UDP port 161.
