Appologies if this is the wrong list to ask, but I am currently chasing 
a bug where we are seeing an snmptable command respond with question 
marks ('?') as the result for some of the column entries; and I am 
wondering if this is normal behaviour if net-snmp encounters an error 
while trying to interpret a response.

example:
snmptable -c public -Os -Cl localhost mytable -Co 
"index=id,col3=num,col4=ip"

id   num      ip
091  1        192.168.24.85
201  1        192.168.24.119
76E  1        192.168.26.9
118  1        192.168.26.11
286  1        192.168.26.28
CFB  1        192.168.26.101
078  1        192.168.25.255
095  1        192.168.24.252
DE8  ?        ?
9D8  1        192.168.26.93


also, we've noticed that when the '?' appears, the row is actually 
repeated over and over again (sometimes thousands of times!) as if the 
bulk-get gets stuck retreiving the same index over and over again.

Has anyone seen behaviour like this before?

Is this expected if the MIB-code is returning erroneous data?

Thanks for any input you can provide.
