Actually the latest net-snmp release (5.3+) contains the ability to
handle a "local" security model that does not authenticate the
transaction with USM but rather just lets it go through.  It is not,
however, well documented.  It is used by the (also new) "STD"
transport that lets SNMP messages arrive and depart through
stdio/err.  See snmplib/snmpSTDDomain.c and snmplib/snmplocalsm.c.  Note
that the UCD_MSG_FLAG_TUNNELED flag must be set in the PDU for the
local security model to ignore the security of how the packet got there.
