Ben, Acee,

 Since the TE Opaque LSAs are of area scope, I think the
RFC1850 MIB should work as Acee describes. The MIB update
does not invent a new area LSDB table for opaque LSAs. It
just specifies a textual identifier for type-10s in the existing
Area LSDB table so that management systems or MIB browsers can
translate the type number 10 to "type-10" for display. Type-11s go
in the extLSDB table. The update does define a new LSDB table for
type-9s, though, because the other two tables don't have
a link/interface index component.

Ben,

The update to the OSPF MIB (draft-ietf-ospf-mib-update-05.txt)
supports the retrieval of opaque LSAs. An application would need
to parse ospfLsdbAdvertisement to exact the TE TLVs.

Has anyone implemented this MIB update?
