Hello,
Could you please if it is advisable to use a string eg. name of item as a table
index?
The table is yet to be defined, need defined and added to a MIB file.
The table will contain info of different items and our requirement is if we can
get the info of a particular item by doing snmpget

I have tested it, it is feasible, but while giving the OID in snmpget,
we needed to give the item name string index by dot separated ascii
values of each character in the name.
eg. OID of the table .1.column
no..5.65.66.67.68.69
Hi,
I've seen this technique used by a major telecom vendor, so it's certainly
technically doable. They included DateAndTime and a name string as part of
the index on trap varbinds.
I would advise you to find a different way, though, just for the reasons
you mention. It's not human-readable at
