[tkined] MacAddress use with agent instance Index

Hello,

I'm working on an agent that implements a table using MacAddress as in
index. Eg:

fooEntry OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX FooEntrySequence
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"row of stuff"
INDEX { fooMacIndex }
::= { group 1 }

If fooMacIndex was of syntax integer (say 10), this would be:

$s instance someObject.10 someObject <value>

If the index is not an integer, but a MacAddress (which is an octet string
of length 6 -- say, A0:A0:A0:A0:A0:A0), how would I express this as an
instance?

Something like:
$s instance someObject.$MacAddress someObject <value> ??

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Jason

$s instance
