usmUserSpinLock - is it optional for the managers to use ?

May be it is a more general SNMP question than a net-snmp question.

 

Is using usmUserSpinLock mandatory? Based on the RFC, it is an advisory
lock, which probably means it is recommended but not necessary. We are
in a situation, where the manager doesn't use it. But the agent is
failing if the manager doesn't include it in the requests for creating
entries or modifying entries in the USM table. What is the right
behavior?

 

Thanks,
