But those are *not* the same options that you listed in your "trapsess"
line.  In particular, you don't set an explicit engine ID here, whereas
you did in the snmpd.conf file entry.

And that trapsess line included the flag -Ci, to send an INFORM
(rather than a TRAP).  The command above is sending a TRAP.

You're probably trying to go too fast.
If you need to trigger a trap from the agent, then the simplest way
is probably to shut it down, or start it up.  The trapsess line will
send a notification to the trap receiver.

And what is in the snmpd.conf file?
Just the "trapsess" line, or do you still have the "trapsink" ?

This log fragment feels to be handling a v1/v2c trap,
which is not relevant to SNMPv3 handling.

Get rid of everything trap-related in the snmpd.conf file
except the "trapsess" line,  and use *exactly* the same
options as your successful "snmptrap" command.
