IP address in com2sec directive?

I have a configuration tool which uses SNMP locally to talk to the agent
and retrieve and set some data. I've recently run into a problem where
mis-configured networking prevented host resolution (`ping localhost`
hung). I'd like to convert my utility to connect to 127.0.0.1 (which
will always be localhost, at least on my system) so name resolutino is
needed and I wonder if I can also put that in snmpd.conf in the SOURCE
field of a com2sec directive. The description of com2sec documentation
on snmpd.conf.5 isn't clear (to me) and searching the list archives for
"localhost" or "localhost com2sec" found no relevant hits. I'd guess I
can at least put "127.0.0.1/32" but would "127.0.0.1" work?
