rfc3412 has a section about this.

If you didn't modify snmpGet.cpp, this will not work, as -ce expects a
plain string (not as hex values).

Make the following changes to the consoleExamples (they will be in the
next release):
     if ( strstr( argv[x],"-ce")!=0) {
       ptr = argv[x]; ptr+=3;
-->    contextEngineID = OctetStr::from_hex_string(ptr);
       continue;
     }
