Maybe you could wrap the snmptrap executable in a shell script.

ie. Make a shell script called snmptrap that reads in the commandline variables and then calls the “real” snmptrap with the additional port information added. Put the snmptrap shell script somewhere in the path ahead of the real net-snmp executable.

Subject: Need help with snmptrapd command

HI,
I am trying to figure out a way by which I can send following trap command without adding/mentioning the port number. The receiver is receiving the trap when the custom port number is mentioned
snmptrap -v 2c -c rscommunity <DEST-IP-ADDRESS>:166 "" TRAP-TEST-MIB::demotraps  SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 s "some message"
By default, the following command does not require the port number to be mentioned when the snmptrapd is using the default port-161.
snmptrap -v 2c -c rscommunity <DEST-IP-ADDRESS> "" TRAP-TEST-MIB::demotraps  SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 s "some message"
Additional info:
firewall opened for the above mentioned custom port
SELINUX
/etc/sysconfig/selinux has the following edit  "SELINUX=disabled" (essentially SELINUX is off)

So far, I have been following the http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial/tutorial-5/commands/snmptrap.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.net-2Dsnmp.org_tutorial_tutorial-2D5_commands_snmptrap.html&d=CwMFaQ&c=jcv3orpCsv7C4ly8-ubDob57ycZ4jvhoYZNDBA06fPk&r=xN9AnMDZvO_QvUZQZcoply6WFqSJuNcpv-dDu2fA4Ac&m=syhCJx6f_QiHrEJ_3yynUp8lWw1ZVzUv30Y88ft2daM&s=TzXSUtOIyBeBB7JwGqpM1HwKyI5SA6cYhZ5As2wG8kc&e=> to understand/test
