Quite correct.  This is exactly where SNMPv3 contexts come in.

But note that when working with a non-default context, there are
several points where this context must be taken into account:

  -  you need to specify the context as part of the request
        ("snmpwalk -v 3 -n {context} ....")
  -  you need to specify the context as part of access control config
       ("access  group  {context} .....")
  - and you need to specify the context when the subagent registers
        with the master agent.   We can't advise you how to do that,
        since you say you're using a different subagent toolkit.
        You'll need to talk to the cryptix people about that.
