What is snmpCommunityContextEngineID?

This object holds the SNMP engine ID identifying the context in which management information is accessed when a request uses the corresponding community string. It matters to admins configuring proxy or multi-context agents, since it determines which internal MIB context a community maps into. For example, it defaults to the local snmpEngineID, but on a proxy agent it might be set to a remote device's engine ID so that community-based polls are relayed to that device's context.
