    • Type: Incident report
    • Resolution: Won't fix
    • Priority: Minor
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: 4.0.11
    • Component/s: Proxy (P), Server (S)
    • Environment:
      Zabbix 4.0.7
      Postgres 11
      Centos 7

      I have been unable to collect and store SNMP ifPhysAddress correctly as it either shows as blank or bad data.

      When performing the snmpwalk on a specific oid I get the following:

      snmpwalk -v2c -c '8nBAToGrH8p0AknFd9oR' 10.220.45.8 .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.6.8
      IF-MIB::ifPhysAddress.8 = STRING: 6c:b2:ae:98:a3:1c

      When defining the Zabbix SNMPv2 itemĀ .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.6.8 I get the following:

      l????

      When query the database for the raw data I get the following:

      l????\x1C

      If the item is defined as an SNMPv3 item the data is returned as blank.
