Depends on at what level you are looking at the functionality. -@ would
set session.localaddr, which is a little different than setting
clientaddr. In the sense of "how does my request look" when focusing on
the snmpget invocation, it's the same. In the sense of "how do I set the
local source for a trapsess", it's different.
Since the v1/v2 trap sink commands have gained a "-s" argument, it might be
better to call this "-s" too instead of "-@".
