I searched for error: "Code point \u0016 is not a valid character in XML at ./Call_to_snmpwalk.pl line 32" It seems that this error is being generated due to control characters present in the text which are not allowed in xml. So I have two options:

1) Remove these control characters from the file and then print: I have tried this using

perl -pe's/\x08//g' <file1.xml >file1.xml

But this gives error: Bad name after g' at <script_name>.pl line 13.

2) To actually generate an xml (actual .xml file) from code and put the text that is converted in xml into this file and then read it. Do anyone have any suggestions on point 1 or 2?
