Hi Stu,
The code you quote from https://github.com/joescii/snmp4s/blob/master/core/ <https://github.com/joescii/snmp4s/blob/master/core/> seems to be old and not production ready. It is not related to the original SNMP4J and should not be used a reference! The problem you are facing is caused by the SNMPv3 security standards, thus it is not a bug! I t is a feature. Each SNMP agent (engine) has to have a (world) unique engine ID. And each agent needs its own USM. For tips how to implement this with SNMP4J in the same Java process see the “USM separation” section of the FAQ at: https://doc.snmp.app/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=1441800 <https://doc.snmp.app/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=1441800> Best regards, Frank > On 12.
