WRT 1 there doesn't appear to be a way to exclude port 161.
It looks to be hard coded in the agent.

Can you add this customer's info to PR 70375.

Hello David,

Now a days I am struggling to configure the SNMP agent on the QNX 6.5.

QNX SNMP daemon is not exposing the Host Resource group data. The configuration (/etc/mib.txt) file contains all the 
required information.
The snmpget utility says – There is no such variable name in the MIB. But MIB contains this information.
 

Do you have any experience in SNMP implementation on QNX 6.5?

Naresh
