Please see the relevant FAQ entries:
    Is Net-SNMP thread safe?
        http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ:General_17
and
    Can the agent run multi-threaded?

Are you talking about the handling of responses by the client
application (in which case it's up to the programmer - see
General_17 above),  or the handling of incoming requests
by the agent (see Agent_43)

See Agent_43
