Thanks a lot.

Almost got it working but got an error

   TypeError: can't convert Fixnum into String

at this line

   varbind = VarBind.new(oid.to_s + "." + result.reset_port , 
Integer.new(3))

I fixed it by converting reset_port to string i.e., 
result.reset_port.to_s

but it again gave an error

    NoMethodError: undefined method `new' for Integer:Class

for the modified line

 varbind = VarBind.new(oid.to_s + "." + result.reset_port.to_s , 
Integer.new(3))

Thanks in advance:)
