Ports 161/162 are in use by a java software, so the requirement is to use 163 for net-snmp
[root@testSRV snmp]# netstat -apn | grep 162
udp 0 0 ::ffff:10.145.1.10:162 :::* 2827/java
[root@testSRV snmp]# netstat -apn | grep 161

If I remove the line "agentaddress udp:127.0.0.1:163" from /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf and use the following command
[root@testSRV snmp]# snmpd -f -Lo udp:163 -C -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
NET-SNMP version 5.5
error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
SNMPD comes up but I get the message above on the console. Is there any way to use the parameters of "snmpd -f -Lo udp:163 -C -c /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf" to /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf?
