I have a problema with several hosts that generate information containing non
printable characters such as áéíóú, àèìòù, etc. For example, a Lexmark printer,
shoud return for OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.43.11.1.1.6.1.5
(prtMarkerSuppliesDescription.1.5):
"Caja de desecho de tóner"
Instead of that, my management software (Zabbix) shows:
"43 61 6A 61 20 64 65 20 64 65 73 65 63 68 6F 20 64 65 20 74 A2 6E 65 72"
If I try with snmpget: snmpget -v 1 -c community Lexmark_printer_IP
.1.3.6.1.2.1.43.11.1.1.6.1.5
I obtain the hexadecimal value above. But if I use the -Oa (force output as
ASCII): snmpget -Oa -v 1 -c community Lexmark_printer_IP
.1.3.6.1.2.1.43.11.1.1.6.1.5
I get "Caja de desecho de t.ner"
I have tried to add the -Oa switch in the SNMPDOPTS line inside the
/etc/init.d/snmpd script, but it is ignored. Does anybody know how to force the
output to be ASCII for all snmp items?
Thanks
Ofullana
