Dear bolvar
Unless you are a hardcore NetSNMP user - snmpwalk is one of many functions (and does allow to define the path and the name of the MIBs you like to become verbose and visible (ways beyond of the Netgear Community to give an intro), for exact in-depth OIDs and data delivered by e.g. the M4300 switches, we strongly suggest to use something more user-friendly.
Key is to understand that the MIB files are the holding the exact definitions of all OIDs .... these are the fancy numbers .1.x.x.x.x.x.
Best start would be the iReasoning MIB Browser - the personal edition is free, allowing to load a smaller number of MIB files.
Start with loading the fastpath_boxservices.my to it, then you can easily browse the data supplied in various formats. The boxServicesGroup does contain (among many more) two tables with the boxServcesFansTable and the boxServicesPowSuppliesTable.
These tables would be more informative in case you want to explain and present possible issues with the Netgear M4300 SNMP implementation.
We cant and wont help how 3rd party applications like the named zabbix and the individual mappings of standard OIDs to the application representation.
Please start with posting screenshots of these two tables named taken from the MIB Browser and the two tables:
boxServcesFansTable
.1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.10.43.1.6
boxServicesPowSuppliesTable
.1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.10.43.1.7
And mark what you think what OID might deliver wrong or strange data. Now we have something visible and can talk same language.

Dear Kurt!
Im not an expert just thinking on the problem :D
This is the oid i have the problem with.
The problem maybe that the switch has only 1 psu?
Because this oid gives value 2 back, and 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.10.43.1.7.1.3.1.1 whats okay is getting back value 1.
Can this be the problem?
