Get SNMP protocol version from the packet. This routine does not verify if version number is valid. Caller should verify that returned value represents a valid SNMP protocol version number.
CopyC#
int protocolVersion = Packet.GetProtocolVersion(inPacket, inLength);
if( protocolVersion != -1 )
{
    if( protocolVersion == SnmpConstants.SNMPV1 || protocolVersion == SnmpConstants.SNMPV2 || protocolVersion == SnmpConstants.SNMPV3 )
    {
        // do something
    }
    else
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Invalid SNMP protocol version.");
    }
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine("Invalid SNMP packet.");
}
