If I understand it correctly, SOURCE means where the packet originated form. 
If I want to connect from the internal network only, SOURCE should be my my 
internal network, which is 10.50.0.0/25 or 10.50.0.0/255.255.255.128.
However the source and target are the same host and I don't get a reply, 
although snmpd is listening on the right udp port (161).
Can it be a kernel module that I am missing?
