[AGENT++] GET request with bad IOR

[Frank Fock]

Hi,

If the message processing protocol was SNMPv2c or v3
then the agent should have returned a variable exception
syntax "noSuchObject" instead an error status.
Then the other objects values should have been returned
by the agent.

With SNMPv1, the agent can/must return an error status.

Best regards,
Frank
