I encountered two problems with snmpd when trying to force TLS
connections. First a documentation issue. The man 5 snmpd.conf
states relay options would be:

| relay [backup [mx]] [as address] [source address] [hostname name]
|         [hostnames names] [pki pkiname] [tls | verify]
[..]
|         Note that the tls and verify options are mutually
|         exclusive

In fact, "verify" does not work in 5.5, but one needs to add 
"tls verify" to the "relay" (not "relay via") statement. 
I.e. the manpage should indeed show "[tls [verify]]".

The second issue is with "listen on". The options "tls-require" 
and "secure" seem to be ignored there. Any suggestions?

Cheers

        David
