All-

Please help, I am trying to do an snmp set on an OID number (no mib loaded)
with a hex value.

For example:

% snmp session -address 10.1.10.4

(returns snmp0)

% snmp0 set {{1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.2.3.1.2.10.1.10.71 {OCTET STRING}
\x0a\x01\x0a\x47}}

I always get the message :
illegal octet string value

when I try to do this. A packet capture reveals no data being sent to the
agent at 10.1.10.4.

I am using tnm 2.1.7. Other gets and sets with regular ASCII values work.
