We have some snmp data and want to extract the data as a key-value pair

Sample

var.12345.5.5 = INTEGER: 10 myTag::var.12345.5.9 = STRING: "abc"    myTag::var.12345.5.3 = STRING: "admin"  myTag::var.12345.5.4 = STRING: "developer"
var.12345.5.5 = INTEGER: 10 myTag::var.12345.5.9 = STRING: "xyz"    myTag::var.12345.5.3 = STRING: "user1"  myTag::var.12345.5.4 = STRING: "support"

output required

var_12345_5_9,var_12345_5_3,var_12345_5_4
abc,admin,developer
xyz,user1,support

I tried a basic

REGEX=var\.([^ ]+)\s=\s(\S+)
FORMAT = $1::$2
CLEAN_KEYS = true

But can you please help in making it a bit more better?
