If you are sending an SNMPv3 trap PDU, then the engineID should be
that of the engine *sending* the trap  (and the trap receiver would need
to be configured with appropriate users for each trap generator).

If you are sending an SNMPv3 inform PDU, then the engine ID should be
that of the engine *receiving* the trap.

This is one of the most confusing aspects of SNMPv3 notifications.
