Re: snmpwalk and -Ox parameter to force Hex Output

My guess is one machine has the MIB with a display hint & the other doesn't.

$ oid2name .1.3.6.1.2.1.17.4.3.1.1
BRIDGE-MIB::dot1dTpFdbAddress

on my machine the bridge mib has this:
   dot1dTpFdbAddress OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX      MacAddress

MacAddress is pulled in from SNMPv2-TC with a display hint:
MacAddress ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
    DISPLAY-HINT "1x:"

Regards,
Lee
