2-We have installed on the INDEXER net-snmp-5.6.1.1-1.x86 with the following config on windows server 2016.
C:\usr\etc\snmp

mibdirs C:/usr/share/snmp/mibs
persistentDir C:/usr/snmp/persist
tempFilePattern C:/usr/temp/snmpdXXXXXX
snmpTrapdAddr 192.168.1.111:162 (IP ADDR INDEXER)

The listening snmpTrapAddr and authCommnity should be in snmpd.conf - not snmp.conf

If my comment helps, please give it a thumbs up!

The listening snmpTrapAddr and authCommnity are already in snmpd.conf

hmm ok, are they also in snmp.conf. I went straight to the error lines, and it seems perhaps you have them in both?
c:/usr/etc/snmp/snmp.conf: line 6: Warning: Unknown token: snmpTrapdAddr.
c:/usr/etc/snmp/snmp.conf: line 7: Warning: Unknown token: authCommunity.
