Many thanks all,
you gave me really useful information.
For the moment I going in the direction of parsing the output but I wonder
if the type STRING can be overriden by any other dattype in a specific MIB
written on purpose. As noticed it's a bit risky because for the string type
we don't know an
Lets look at snmp type BITS which is actually an OCTET-STRING with a very
special format.
It can be used for to assign what parts of a quantity an entity supports.
Take a network interface for example. What media types does it support?
BITS is an snmp type derived from a primitive snmp type.

Thank you Fedor and Mattias.
@Mattias I haven't seen such MIBs. I have to admit that I tried to learn
them but I haven't understood this capabilities of their of parsing the OID
output.
Maybe I haven't sought the Internet in the right way.
Do you perhaps have an example or a web-page where I can
Hi Allesandro,
Sure, MIB declaration have types for each leaf oid it have declared, but
unfortunatelly I'm not sure if the SNMP Poller you use is using type
presented in MIB.
I think that SNMP Poller you use is doing it's type assumptions based on
SNMP PDU type it receives, so I think that it wou
Hello all,
I tried to search the Internet for my answer but I don't seem to find it.
At my company we have an appliance that for some OIDs it doesn't return an
integer calue that can be processed and graphed but a string that looks
