Convert OctetString to Readable Decimal Value

[lextudio-support]

Hi,

I am struggling to convert an OctetString Value to readable decimal value. For
example, I receive
(Raw Value [OctetString]: HEX: 00 80 00 00 ) over SNMP using SharpSnmpLib and
don't know how to convert it to decimal value 9.

When I use an standard MIB Browser Tool I do see the translation of 00 80 00
00 to 9, but just don't get it how its done. I appreciate if someone can help
me to solve this problem.

Best regards

Yeasin Habib

Hi,

The value itself is impossible to convert from the raw bytes to the value you
want.

The MIB Browser tool you use, can only do the conversion when it loads the
corresponding MIB documents. #SNMP Pro is going to support that, but the open
source edition of #SNMP won't.

Regards,

Lex
