[SNMP4J] Agent address in SNMPv2

[Pavel Orehov]

Hi,

Sorry guys, there is an AgentIP
http://www.tcpipguide.com/free/t_SNMPVersion1SNMPv1MessageFormat-3.htm but
only in SNMPv1 trap PDU. You even have the function in PDUv1.
setAgentAddress.
I thought that it also exist in SNMPv2.

Anybody knows why it was removed from the PDU in SNMPv2 ? May be security
issues, so that the real peer address would be only valid agent IP ?

Thanks,
Pavel
