Good ! Very accurate !.
Some fuzzy ideas, don't trust them dogmatically:
You are tracking ip6 traffic with source-origin on port 161 on your
machine.
The parameters above "ip6 and port 161" do not constraint the type for
transmission protocol , I mean [tcp/udp]/ipv6 .
If your patch is asking with tcp/ip6, both ip6 addresses must match , and
this would justify the problem
But...what when udp/ipv6 is used ?
Can you configure the SNMPd agent running on my PC to reply from the same
address always ? Or can you constraint just to listen on a fixed IPv6
address ?
If not, (please, confirm), the patch would present a problem
I do use for running SNMPD ( net-snmp )
"#./snmpd -V -f -a -d -L udp6:161"

Sorry , even changing to the other address I have the same result: I
cannot
