Access Control without MibII

Hi,
I have built Net-SNMP version 5.8 without MibII and Host MIBs. Then I want to allow only one host (10.9.31.100) to connect to my agent and execute requests. In my conf file, I have the following:

rwcommunity  public  10.9.31.100

Regardless the host I have entered in the rwcommunity directive, I can execute SNMP request from any host and I still get the result of that request. I would expect that it would only work from 10.9.31.100.

I have try to rebuild my Net-SNMP with the support of MibII and host and now it works as expected: i.e I cannot execute request from another host than 10.9.31.100.

Is there a reason for that behavior? If so, is there another way to remove the support of MibII, but still manage to validate the host of the incoming requests?

Thanks,
David
