After more testing, I find that if I add a device listening on the default snmp 
port (161) and then change the port on the device and in zProperties it works 
after doing a "Collect Configuration."

So, it seems that Zenoss _will_ talk to devices on alternate snmp ports, if 
they already exist. If I try to add a device using any snmp port other than 
161, it fails with the "No snmp found on IP" error.

It's quite cumbersome to change the snmp port for each device just to add it 
for monitoring by Zenoss, then change it back.

And seriously, is this so unusual? Nobody else runs into this issue? Everybody 
is really leaving their snmp listeners on the standard port for every script 
kiddie's bot network to scan? Nobody is using port forwarding to query multiple 
devices behind a firewall?
