The protocol used by SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 is identical. (Strictly speaking, both SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 actually use SNMPv2 protocol requests. But that's not important right now). The difference lies in the administrative information, used to decide whether or not to accept a particular request. SNMPv2c has the very simple community-based admin mechanism. SNMPv3 has a much more powerful (secure, complex) administrative framework - supporting proper authentication, encryption, etc. But the basic protocol operations are the same.
