<modulesummary>Message Processing and Dispatch module for the SNMP agent</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>The module <c>snmpa_mpd</c> implements the version independent
Message Processing and Dispatch functionality in SNMP for the agent.
It is supposed to be used from a Network Interface process
(<seealso marker="snmp_agent_netif">Definition of Agent Net if</seealso>).
</p>

<v>Vsn = v1 | v2 | v3</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>This function can be called from the net_if process at start-up.
The options list defines which versions to use.
</p>
<p>It also initializes some SNMP counters.

<p>Processes an incoming packet. Performs authentication and
decryption as necessary. The return values should be passed the
agent.</p>
<note>
<p>Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended
for special cases, if the agent is to "emulate" multiple EngineIDs!
By default, the agent uses the value of <c>SnmpEngineID</c>
(see SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB). </p>

<p><c>MsgData</c> is the message specific data used in
the SNMP message. This value is received in a <c>send_pdu</c>
or <c>send_pdu_req</c> message from the agent. In SNMPv1 and
SNMPv2c, this message data is the community string. In
SNMPv3, it is the context information.
<c>To</c> is a list of the destination addresses and
their corresponding security parameters. This value is
also received from the requests mentioned above.

<note>
<p>Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended
