It seems that you are confusing a binary OCTET STRING, with a DisplayString.
Your BITS value should be an OCTET STRING with a single octet of value
0x20.
Your value seems to be an OCTET STRING with two octets of value 0x32 0x30
(ASCII characters "2" and "0")
I can't explain what happened to the BITS decoding. What version of
Net-SNMP is this? What is the output when using -Ox and not loading
the MIB?
