http://www.snmplink.org/src/Books.html links to books about SNMPv3.
After knowing all SNMPv3 key words the agent++/snmp++ API should be easy 
to understand. You could also look at the snmp++/agent++ examples that 
configure USM and VACM.

Sure, you even can have several of them (each on a different UDP port)
on one system.

? Sorry, I don't understand this question...
