It is going to be up to your OS as to whether or not you can open the same
(non-shared) port on a virtual ip address.

     With the information I got, my OS supports. But by default (if no port number is specified) the agent listens at 161. So will net-snmp agent supports for this kinda accessing same port 161 by more than one virtual IP Address at the same time?
 

It looks like yours won't, so you
are stuck with 1 agent for all the virtual addresses on an interface, or using
different ports.

You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different.
