Issue with MAC address return #17

Open deveshmanish opened 4 years ago

deveshmanish commented 4 years ago

The current implementation does not return the correct mac address. In my scenario the MAC address returned is in Hex-String format. It throws a

TypeError: 'str' object cannot be interpreted as an integer

Which is correct since the mac_address function uses ":".join([hex(c).lstrip("0x").zfill(2) for c in string]) which is correct since hex(c) expects an integer not a string. I tried bypassing the function all together but that too doesn't return the expected output. The mac address seems to be encoded.

Is there a way to get the actual value returned by the SNMP get/walk? In my own implementation of mac_address the correct address is returned by the following code: ':'.join(mac[i:i + 2] for i in range(2, 12, 2)) But this too won't work unless the actual raw value or value.prettyPrint() is passed to it.

Can you provide an example repr() or the returned value? Ideally from PySNMP as well.
