That's if I can work out how to Recent versions tend to be more complex because they're following SNMPv3 model, which is complex.

Basic SNMP types don't seem to include floating point numbers. Maybe you're decoding something defined by a TEXTUAL-CONVENTION at a MIB? The protocol (for packing floating point value into some native SNMP type) might be specified by the TC then. If you provide more details I'm willing to help. -ilya -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
