Hi,

I am testing retry option in snmpcmd  and noticed that retries for snmpv2c
inform  is not 5.
According to snmpcmd man page default retries is 5. So I was expecting it
will use default value .
I am using net-snmp-5.7.1 and retries are not configured in snmp config
file.

Is this known issue in version 5.7.1?   I did test the same on net-snmp-5.9
and could see 5 retries.
