Title: snmpset is failing on usmDHParameters.0 OID

Hi,

I need your help regarding the snmp-set operation against the scalar OID usmDHParameters.0

This OID is defined in SNMP-USM-DH-OBJECTS-MIB.txt and the object defintions as follows

################################
usmDHParameters OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX  OCTET STRING
    MAX-ACCESS read-write
    STATUS  current
    DESCRIPTION
        "The public Diffie-Hellman parameters for doing a Diffie-Hellman
    key agreement for this device.  This is encoded as an ASN.1
    DHParameter per PKCS #3, section 9.  E.g.

        DHParameter ::= SEQUENCE {
           prime   INTEGER,   -- p
           base    INTEGER,   -- g
           privateValueLength  INTEGER OPTIONAL }
################################
SNMP-GET Command is successful

My question is snmp-set is failing on this object even though set operation is defined for this object (ie OID is read-write type). Can you please provide any inputs?

snmpset -v2c -c wimax 10.201.114.135 usmDHParameters.0 x 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFC90FDAA22168C234C4C6628B80DC1CD129024E088A67CC74020BBEA63B139B22514A08798E3404DDEF9519B3CD3A431B302B0A6DF25F14374FE1356D6D51C245E485B576625E7EC6F44C42E9A637ED6B0BFF5CB6F406B7EDEE386BFB5A899FA5AE9F24117C4B1FE649286651ECE65381FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I tried with other options -> s "ox111...", x "0xfff11.." and etc with snmpset


ERROR is :

Error in packet.
Reason: wrongValue (The set value is illegal or unsupported in some way)
Failed object: SNMP-USM-DH-OBJECTS-MIB::usmDHParameters.0

Mahesh
