Thanks for the logs.  They've shown me positively that the agent is
broken.  When it reboots it is restarting it's SNMPv3 boots and time
values at 1 again.  This is illegal and is the source of your problems.
You need to contact the device vendor and get them to fix the problem in
their software.  It's not Net-SNMP's fault.

(if you look through the logs you can see the point where the
engineboots is at 1 and some number (30 and then something larger) and
then suddenly it is back to 1 and 15, which means it's going back in
time.  That "1" should be "2" instead to fix the problem.  SNMPv3
requires persistent data storage on the device for the protocol to work
properly.

I've closed that as well; your packet trace proves it's a problem with
the agent.
