Which particular function(s) are you referring to?

In general, 'unsigned char *' is used as a pointer to generic data
(as Amber guessed correctly), and would typically be cast to the
appropriate type.

Or if you're working with a netsnmp_variable_list structure,
then use the appropriate field of the 'val' union

It's impossible to be more specific without knowing which
function(s) you're looking at.
