It doesn't really matter what token you pass to "init_snmp".
The main (only?) use of this is to decide what application-specific
config files to read.

So if you initialise the library using
     init_snmp( "aaabbb" );

then the application (agent, subagent, whatever) will look for the
config file "aaabbb.conf".

Run the command
    snmpget -Dread_config 2>&1  | grep path

This will report the search path used for configuration files.
