Hi Ilya

I have observed that the snmpbulkget request output from snmpsim is not in proper order.

Our snmp manager sends a bulkget request for "particular OIDs and repeat count" as shown in the perl snippet below:

        $max_reps=5;
        $alarmSeqNo=272164;
        $result = $session->get_bulk_request(
                                                  -maxrepetitions  => $max_reps,
                          -varbindlist      => [
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.6.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.2.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.7.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.5.$alarmSeqNo",
                "1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.$alarmSeqNo",
                ],
        );

The real SNMP agent node returns the response as under ( as seen in wireshark)

        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272165' => 2322,
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272165' => '11#3',
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.6.272165' => '0x07dd051e091a1900',
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.2.272165' => 39,
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.7.272165' => 1,
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.5.272165' => 1,
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272165' => '',
                ------------
                ------------
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272169' => 2322,
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272169' => '11#3',
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.6.272169' => '0x07dd051e091a1900',
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.2.272169' => 39,
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.7.272169' => 1,
        '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.5.272169' => 1,
      '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272169' => '',

Note : 1. The OIDs are returned in the same order as specified in the request (ref perl snippet)
         2. The number of OIDs returned = 7*5=35 as expected ( request has 7 OIDs and repeat count of 5)

However when the same bulkget request is sent to the snmpsim, the response is different as under:

          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272165' => 2322,
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272166' => 2322,
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272167' => 2322,
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.3.272168' => 2322,
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272165' => '11#1',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272166' => '11#3',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272167' => '11#0',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.4.272168' => '11#0'
                ---------

          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272165' => '',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272166' => '',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272167' => '',
          '1.3.6.1.4.1.637.74.1.2.2.1.1.1.4.1.10.272168' => '',

Note : 1. The OIDs are returned in an order DIFFERENT from one specified in the request (ref perl snippet)
       2. The number of OIDs returned is not 7*5=35 as expected it retuned only 28 , OIDs for the last index number
          272169 were missing

Please help !
