in thread Formatting snmpget output and OIDs

If I understand the question correctly you are working on an SNMP server in perl (apparently using NetSNMP::agent, although it would help if you specified that) and you want to change the output format that someone who runs 'snmpget' on your servers sees? Do I understand that correctly?

If so, the answer is "you can't", the server can only return the values, you would have to change the client to control how they are displayed at that end.

We're not surrounded, we're in a target-rich environment!

    Thanks to both of you Jason, you are almost correct, I want to change the output format that someone who runs 'snmpWALK' on my servers sees, and I understud that it IS possible since the 'walk' does work with names, no ??
