Ok. Looks like I cannot use the windows binary as is for testing v6.
Now for immediate testing I plan to use Linux system to generate the snmp
requests.
On Linux when I compile the net-snmp-5.1 with v6 option, does it also
Build the apps (snmpget, snmpset....etc) also with this option.
i.e. would snmpget, snmpgetnext, snmpset apps, would they be v6 capable?

Thanks
