differnet behavior between snmptrap command versions

I have noticed a behavior difference between two different versions of
the snmptrap command but I could not find anything documenting the
change in behavior in the change notes and I wanted to verify if this
was a bug fix that changed the behavior.  The issue has to do with
sending a SNMP v1 trap with or without a '.' At the beginning of the
enterprise OID in the command line option.

 

Using verison  UCD-snmp version: 4.2.5 sending an SNMP trap with an
enterprise OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0 results in a trap being sent
(according to a wireshark capture) with an OID of
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0 but if the enterprise OID is send as
.1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0 (note the '.' At the front of the OID) then the
trap is sent with an OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0. 

 

Using version NET-SNMP version 5.3.2.2 sending an SNMP trap with an
enterprise OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0 results in a trap being sent
(according to a wireshark capture) with an OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0
but if the enterprise OID is send as .1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0 (note the
'.' At the front of the OID) then the trap is sent with an OID of
1.3.6.1.4.1.789.0.86.0.

 

Any assistance with be a big help,

Mark
