Fwd: [ net-snmp-Bugs-2999463 ] why snmpget display string instead of hex-string

Hi,

I apology creating a ticket but I'm not familiar with the process.

In fact I want to know how it is choiced to display information in string  
format instead of hex-string?

snmpset -v 2c -t 3 -r 1 -m all -O sq -c private 192.168.100.1  
1.3.6.1.4.1.XXXX.2.99.1.1.2.1.4.1.2.8 x %1
> %1 is once 7071BCF87B36 once 7071BCF87B1F

Answer is once in string format and once in Hex-String format.


Thanks for your help.

BR
Thierry
