As Anand has pointed out, the agent will re-read the configuration file
(without restarting) if it receives a HUP signal,  or if the 'reconfig' variabl
 is set to 1.
   It's also possible to trigger a re-load of the config file via SNMP itself,
by issuing a SET on UCD-SNMP-MIB::versionUpdateConfig.0 to 1

For more specific reconfiguration, you can use the API call
    snmp_config_when( "some config line", EITHER_CONFIG);
