A handler is a Net-SNMP construct that either handles or helps the handling of requests being processed by the Net-snmp agent. The architecture of how the handle system works is described in the Agent Architecture document.

Handlers are typically either end-of-the-line handlers or are helping handlers that simply help out the lower level handlers.
