Pass the port number to an extension command in snmpd.conf

Hello,

I have snmpd listening on multiple ports, and I am using a pass_persist 
directive in the snmpd.conf file to handle requests for a certain 
subtree using a custom application. My application needs to know what 
port the request came in on.

My snmpd.conf looks like this:

agentaddress TCP:5200, TCP:5201, TCP:5202, TCP:5203

rocommunity public
rwcommunity administrator

pass_persist .1.3.6.1.4.1.1206 /usr/bin/custom_app 5200


What I want to do is pass the port number that the request came in on to 
custom_app as a parameter, instead of "5200" above.

In other words, if the request came in on port 5200, invoke 
/usr/bin/custom_app 5200, but if it came in on 5202, invoke 
/usr/bin/custom_app 5202.

I'm sure there must be a way to do this, I've spent hours searching the 
net but haven't found it.

Thanks!

Vere
