[AGENT++] agentX++ and IPv6 problems

Hi Claus,

The master can be configured to accept packets from
a certain group of interfaces.
The master can be configured to listen to a
specific IP address only. This applies to the TCP
interface for AgentX as well as the UDP interface
for SNMP.

Best regards,
Frank
