-a ignore authentication failure traps
-A append to log file rather than truncating it
-c FILE read FILE as a configuration file
-C do not read the default configuration files
-d dump sent and received SNMP packets
-D[TOKEN[,...]] turn on debugging output for the specified TOKENs
(ALL gives extremely verbose debugging output)

hostname lookups (no DNS)
-p FILE store process id in FILE
-t Prevent traps from being logged to syslog
-u UID change to this uid (numeric or textual) after
opening transport endpoints
-v, --version display version information
-x ADDRESS use ADDRESS as AgentX address
-X don't become a subagent
-O <OUTOPTS> toggle options controlling output display
0: print leading 0 for single-digit hex characters
a: print all strings in ascii format
b: do not break OID indexes down
e: print enums numerically
E: escape quotes in string indices
f: print full OIDs on output
n: print OIDs numerically
p PRECISION: display floating point values with specified PRECISION (printf format string)
q: quick print for easier parsing
Q: quick print with equal-signs
s: print only last symbolic element of OID
S: print MIB module-id plus last element
t: print timeticks unparsed as numeric integers
T: print human-readable text along with hex strings
u: print OIDs using UCD-style prefix suppression
U: don't print units
v: print values only (not OID = value)
x: print all strings in hex format
X: extended index format
-L <LOGOPTS> toggle options controlling where to log to
e: log to standard error
o: log to standard output
n: don't log at all
f file: log to the specified file
s facility: log to syslog (via the specified facility)
(variants)
[EON] pri: log to standard error, output or /dev/null for level 'pri' and above
[EON] p1-p2: log to standard error, output or /dev/null for levels 'p1' to 'p2'
[FS] pri token: log to file/syslog for level 'pri' and above
[FS] p1-p2 token: log to file/syslog for levels 'p1' to 'p2'
