engineID for SNMPv3 traps

I have an embedded system running a snmpd server. It has it's own engineID generated from MAC address as instructed by snmpd.conf file. Everything is fine here.

Now, I want the same system to send v3 traps to various destinations with different ip adresses.
The question is: what engineID should I use in snmptrap command:

a) Same engineID as the system's engineID and instruct the receivers to check for it?
b) Different engineID's for each receiver, as provided by receiver?

Please, advise

Adrian
