[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#881046: snmpd listens on two ports (default and configured) when port is given on command line

[Christian Blum]

Package: snmpd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-1.7
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When snmpd is run with a listening address on the command line (in my case
this is 127.0.0.1:261) and that listening address specifies a non-default
port, snmpd will listen on both 127.0.0.1:161 and 127.0.0.1:261. The
expected behavior would be that it is only listening on the endpoint
specified on the command line.

Kind regards,
Chris
