I got the Ipv6 working finally with SNMP v3. I had to add:
    agentaddress udp:161
    agentaddress udp6:161

in snmpd.conf.


Now the problem is SNMPv2 that does not work with IPv6.

I added:
     rocommunity6 public
     rwcommunity6 private

but these tokens are not recognized:
    ./snmpd.conf: line 12: Warning: Unknown token: rocommunity6.
    ./snmpd.conf: line 13: Warning: Unknown token: rwcommunity6.

Any hint will be much appreciated.

Simon
