Re: what data type i should use in the SNMP SET.

Hi,
thanks for the reply, but i have a question on this,

This looks like i am giving extra work to the user who is giving the 
SNMP SET command, is this right? If he wants to set an IP address, he 
has convert it to network byte order and then give it in binary string.

the data type InetAddress is [octet string of 0 to 255 length], the 
agent can covert this to network byte order and store it in the binary 
string, is this correct behavior or not?
when the user is given like
snmpset  ..... localhost   b.1 s "192.16.10.14 "

I don;t the things.

Venkat
