SNMP Modular Input setup for listening IPv6 traps fails

Hello All,
I am trying to setup my Splunk server to listen for IPv6 SNMP traps using the SNMP Modular Input app.

I used the SNMP Modular input app from the Splunk app store (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1537/). I was able to setup Splunk to listen for IPv4 traps and everything seemed to be working fine. Later I added IPv6 address on the Splunk server and setup SNMP traps input for IPv6 and now I am not able to index any received traps.

I used tcpdump to check for the traps on the Splunk server and I am able to receive them.

On looking into the logs, I found:

04-07-2018 22:03:07.494 -0400 ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "python /opt/splunk/etc/apps/snmp_ta/bin/snmp.py" Exception in thread Thread-1:

Can someone help me out on this? Any response is highly appreciated.
