snmp simple proxy broken? (using context works, but proxy without context does not work)

I am trying to set up a net-snmp server on Windows using the latest version (5.4.2). The idea to have net-snmp be the main service and proxy host-specific requests to windows snmp service running on a different port (udp port 1161). The windows snmp only accepts requests from localhost. So this is a simple proxy setup, i.e having windows SNMP service covering part of the OID tree and let net-snmp handle the rest. According to the official documentation from snmpd.conf man page, I can just use the following snmpd.conf ------ rocommunity public proxy -v 1 -c public localhost:1161 .1.3.6.1.2.1 ------- And this is not working. Turning on the debug message showing the following when I try to do a get of sysDescr.0 (.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0): ----------- C:\tools\net-snmp-5.4.2>win32\bin\release\snmpd.exe -c snmpd.conf -Dproxy,vacm,result No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging registered debug token proxy, 1 registered debug token vacm, 1 registered debug token result, 1 proxy_free_config: Free config Cannot find module (IP-MIB): At line 0 in (none) Cannot find module (IF-MIB): At line 0 in (none) Turning on AgentX master support. proxy_config: entering proxy_args: final args: 0 = snmpd-proxy proxy_args: final args: 1 = -Cn proxy_args: final args: 2 = proxy_args: final args: 3 = -v proxy_args: final args: 4 = 1 proxy_args: final args: 5 = -c proxy_args: final args: 6 = public proxy_args: final args: 7 = localhost:1161 proxy_args: final args: 8 = .1.3.6.1.2.1 proxy_config: parsing args: 9 proxy_config: done parsing args proxy_init: name = .1.3.6.1.2.1 proxy_init: registering at: iso.3.6.1.2.1 NET-SNMP version 5.4.2 vacm:getView: , found results: request results (status = 0): results: iso.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 = STRING: "Windows xp608l 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 XP Professional x86 Family 6 Model 9 Stepping 5" Looks like the system simply ignored the registered entry to proxy. When I use a complex snmpd.conf with context names, everything DOES work. So is there a bug that has broken the simple proxy (i.e. without using context) feature?
