A most unhelpful answer, but it doesn't actually matter. The design of the Net-SNMP agent is such that exactly the same MIB module can be used in each case. I tend to implement a new MIB module directly within the main SNMP agent (rather than using dlmod or subagents), but listening on a non-standard port. This means I can run the agent under a debugger, recompile and restart, etc, etc, without affecting the main active agent at all. Then once the module is finished, it can be brought into service either by re-compiling the main agent, as a dynamic module, or via a subagent - whichever is most appropriate at the time.
