discepancy between v1 and v2c

I have come across a discrepancy when using snmpget built with netsnmp
5.3.0.1.

 

I am attempting to access the sub interfaces of a router using the ifTable
in Mib II.

 

As a test I am attempting to retrieve the ifInOctects variable
(1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10)

 

Here is what gets returned when I try the query using snmpv1 and snmpv2c

 

C:\Documents and
Settings\Mathew>C:\NeonDevelopment\snmpv3\net-snmp-5.3.0.1\net-

snmp-5.3.0.1\win32\bin\debug\snmpget.exe -c public -v1 192.168.1.1
1.3.6.1.2.1

.2.2.1.10.6

Error in packet

Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.

Failed object: IF-MIB::ifInOctets.6

 

C:\Documents and
Settings\Mathew>C:\NeonDevelopment\snmpv3\net-snmp-5.3.0.1\net-

snmp-5.3.0.1\win32\bin\debug\snmpget.exe -c public -v2c 192.168.1.1
1.3.6.1.2.

1.2.2.1.10.6

IF-MIB::ifInOctets.6 = No Such Instance currently exists at this OID

 

Why does snmpv1 return an error while snmpv2c does not?
