ok, thanks for the hint.

I try now to create a new row and set the values with seperate snmpset
commands as following

snmpset -v 3 -u boris localhost
SNMP-TARGET-MIB::snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.\'index2'\ = 5

i get

Error in packet.
Reason: wrongLength (The set value has an illegal length from what the agent
expects)
Failed object: SNMP-TARGET-MIB::snmpTargetAddrRowStatus.'index'

I think there must be something wrong with the SnmpAdminString type index.

How do I have to do this?

Thanks a lot

Boris
