Issue with Pysnmp Trap Receiver.for SNMPv3

PSNMP Socket is actually receiving traps but the call back function is not getting called. I have enabled the debug logging. Using Pysnmp 4.3.3

from pysnmp.entity import engine, config
from pysnmp.carrier.asyncore.dgram import udp
from pysnmp.entity.rfc3413 import ntfrcv
from pysnmp.proto.api import v2c
from pysnmp.smi import builder, view, compiler, rfc1902, error
from pysnmp import debug 

debug.setLogger(debug.Debug('all'))
snmpEngine = engine.SnmpEngine()

config.addTransport(
    snmpEngine,
    udp.domainName,
    udp.UdpTransport().openServerMode(('0.0.0.0', 1036))
)

config.addV3User(
    snmpEngine, 'user_snmp1234'
)

def cbFun(snmpEngine, stateReference, contextEngineId, contextName,
          varBinds, cbCtx):
    print "#######################Recived Notification from {} #######################".format(snmpEngine.msgAndPduDsp.getTransportInfo(stateReference)[-1][0])
    for oid, val in varBinds:
        output = rfc1902.ObjectType(rfc1902.ObjectIdentity(oid),
                                         val).resolveWithMib(mibViewController).prettyPrint()
        print output

ntfrcv.NotificationReceiver(snmpEngine, cbFun)
snmpEngine.transportDispatcher.jobStarted(1) 
try:
    snmpEngine.transportDispatcher.runDispatcher()
except:
    snmpEngine.transportDispatcher.closeDispatcher()
    raise

I can see its reciving the v3 traps:

2017-02-24 00:46:02,853 pysnmp: prepareDataElements: SNMPv3Message:
 msgVersion=3
 msgGlobalData=HeaderData:
  msgID=16259

     request-id=775985686
     error-status='noError'
     error-index=0
     variable-bindings=VarBindList:
      VarBind:
       name=1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0
       =_BindValue:
        value=ObjectSyntax:
         application-wide=ApplicationSyntax:
          timeticks-value=10000

But at the end I am gating some error like this :

SNMPv3 TRAPs mandate you configuring SNMP Engine ID of the TRAP sending application to USM users table of TRAP receiving application for each USM user:

config.addV3User(
    snmpEngine, 'user_snmp1234',
    securityEngineId=v2c.OctetString(hexValue='8000000001020304')
)

So you should either configure (or figure out in device configuration) authoritative SNMP engine ID of your TRAP sending apps or devices, then configure them into your TRAP receiver.

If you are struggling figuring out SNMP engine ID of your devices, try this tool -- it will talk to your device and report its SNMP engine ID.

This is how you could send TRAP with Net-SNMP snmptrap tool setting its SNMP engine ID to specific value:

$ snmptrap -v3 -u user_snmp1234 -l noAuthNoPriv -e 8000000001020304 127.0.0.1 123 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1

As explained by the first link, all that complications are due to the fact that (otherwise automatic) SNMP engine ID discovery does not over unidirectional messaging such as TRAPs.
