I've found the solution:
if the request returns iso.3.6.1.2.1.17.7.1.2.2.1.2.1.0.34.100.189.60.156 = INTEGER: 7, the integer-value represents the port of the MAC-address and the last 6 numbers of the OID represent the MAC-address in decimal format, in this example it means that the MAC-address connected to port 7 is 00:22:64:BD:3C:9C.
Thank you for your help :-)

Hi robinchristes,
Welcome to the community! :)
I suggest you to use the NMS300 ProSAFE Network Management System to monitor the GS724Tv3 switch/es via SNMP. You can download the latest version of NMS300 here.
Also, kindly download the GS724Tv3 MIB file on this link as it might help you with the OID. The link will expire within 2-3 days.
Check the article below as well:
Let us know how it goes.

Since the MAC Addresses is present on the web-GUI of the GS724Tv3 switch, what are these devices? Are these devices connected directly to the GS724Tv3 switch? What is the specific type of device wherein you are not able to locate via OID?

the devices (mostly computers) are directly connected to the switch, for example in the image you can see the MAC of a Elitegroup Mainboard on g9
