I am trying to extract fields of SNMPv1 trap from logstash output. Here is my pipeline:

 ![logstash-snmp-trap](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/f/5/f56af215a515e51da44255f3139f0fcd1a4dc08d.png)

And This is what I see in output:

 ![logstash-output](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/4/3/43f48b451bd291c851fb14145a8d6e0aa92f424a.png)

Here, agent address is coming as combination of hexadecimal and ASCII value.

**"agent\_address" =\> ""\xFFA\xFFA""**

Has anyone seen this before? I need agent address in IP Address format( like 1.1.1.1) .

Any help would be appreciated.
