Description Need Real Name 2000-12-07 14:30:58 EST

I am currently try to write a shell script that will pipe the output into 
the read statement.  It is not working at all.  Example is
"snmpget 172.1.1.1 public interfaces.ifNumber.0 | awk '{print $3}' | read 
NUM"
It is not piping the output, which is a number, into the variable.
