  Net-snmp used to have "pass" and "pass-persist" subagents.  It appears
to be poorly documented now.

  The idea would be for the SNMP daemon to contact FreeRADIUS on a TCP
port.  FreeRADIUS would then be able to listen for SNMP queries, and
return SNMP answers.

  This is best to do in 3.0.  See proto_dhcp for examples of adding a
new protocol.

  The goal for 3.1 is to re-arrange the socket code to simplify the
addition of new protocols.  That might help, too.
