Re: Hexstring <-> ASCII

Hello,

Here are 2 samples of the SNMP notifications. One is
taken using snmptrapd of UCD-SNMP v4.2.5 which is
displayed in ACSII string. The other is taken using
snmptapd of NET_SNMP v5.1 which is displayed in Hex
string.

Is there a way to display the Hex string into ASCII
string? Please help. Thanks!
