Bug 1485755

Description of problem:
"authCommunity" directive with an IP address as "SOURCE" parameter causes snmptrapd to generate an error log "Address family for hostname not supported", which is quite misleading.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
net-snmp-5.7.2-24.el7_2.1.x86_64

How reproducible:
when an IP address or an IP network address ( IP/mask-length ) in a "authCommunity" directive in /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf
ex. authCommunity log,execute,net public 192.168.0.1

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create snmptrapd.conf with the following command.
  # echo "authCommunity log,execute,net public 192.168.0.1" > /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf
2. start snmptrapd daemon.
  # snmptrapd -Lf /tmp/s.log

Actual results:
an error message appears in the log file "/tmp/s.log" like:
---
 /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf: line 1: Error: Address family for hostname not supported
 net-snmp: 1 error(s) in config file(s)
 NET-SNMP version 5.7.2
---

Expected results:
no errors should be reported.

Additional info:
this seems a bug in IP address parsing functionality of snmptrapd.
i watched with gdb how the daemon parse an address.
the daemon did parse twice per address, both as IPv4 at first and as IPv6 at second, even if the address had proved to be a valid IPv4 address.
i think this second trial ( parsing addres as IPv6 ) generated the error message.

the gdb log below shows:
 first, the daemon called inet_pton() with AF_INET(2) in netsnmp_udp_parse_security(). this was IPv4 address parsing.
 second, the daemon called inet_pton() with AF_INET6(10) in netsnmp_udp6_parse_security(). this was IPv6 address parsing.
