DisplayString as Table Index

[Vijay K]

Hi,

I have a table which has as indices, an ip address and a displaystring.
This is how I set the Index:

=========
Oidx oidIndex("111.111.111.111.abc");
=========

When I try to retrieve the data from the Manager side (MIB Browser) - the
index does not appear.

However if I set the index as:
=========
Oidx oidIndex("111.111.111.111.25");
=========

- the index appears as "111.111.111.111.25". Why is this so?

Is there any special processing to be done before setting a displaystring as
index?

thanks in advance,

regards,
Vijay K
