[AGENT++] More on Community/Security Name?

it's nowhere defined, if SNMPv3 is enabled, the VACM is used to decide 
if v1/v2c requests are allowed.

So you have to configure the SecurityToGroupTable of the VACM either 
through SNMP or through (from atm-mib example):

         vacm->addNewGroup(SecurityModel_v2, "public",
                          "v1v2group", storageType_nonVolatile);
         vacm->addNewGroup(SecurityModel_v1, "public",
                          "v1v2group", storageType_nonVolatile);
    	vacm->deleteGroup(...)

If you remove the two lines with "public" from 
examples/atm_mib/src/agent.cpp it will no longer answer v1/v2c requests.
