Hi,

Thanks for your reply. When I try to set the
agent-addr using the code below, I get the following
error:
ERROR: Couldn't parse PDU type: Wrong type for that
item.
I use the following code to add the agent-addr:
cp = asn_build_string(cp, out_length,
                    (u_char) (ASN_IPADDRESS |
ASN_PRIMITIVE),
                     (u_char *) pdu->agent_addr, 4);

I do not see any errors when I do teh above.
Thanks.
