Thanks for your response.  I am actually writing an SNMP Agent which requires InterMapper 
to send me a "ID" (a OctetString) which I use to provide a proper response for 
a InterMapper custom-snmp probe.

If you are using SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c, you will need to encode the ID in the community string. For example, to obtain the reading from sensor ABC1234, you could use a community string of the form "public@ABC1234"

If you are using SNMPv3, you can set the "context name" value to the ID of the sensor. (The InterMapper GUI lets you specify the context name for an SNMPv3 probe by setting the user name to "user@context").

Your SNMP agent will need to examine the community string or context name to provide the proper response.
