Yes.
Or rather two MIBs:
SNMP-TARGET-MIB specifies *where* to send notifications
and the version & settings to use
SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB specifies what type of trap to send
(and links in to the Target MIB for the rest).
Try walking the snmpTargetAddrTable, snmpTargetParamsTable
and snmpNotifyTable to see how all this fits together.

It's a more general version of the other three.
Think of it as a snmpd.conf equivalent of the
"snmptrap" command. It takes the same set of options.

Yes.
The master agent sounds like the "trap-distributor" you want.

No

Yes.
You'll have to supply the appropriate values, of course.
But your subagent doesn't have to implement GET support
for the objects concerned.
