All of our IOS and CatOS SNMP agents are multi-lingual.  That is, if you configure an SNMP community string in IOS or CatOS, that string can be used for both SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.  For IOS, you configure a community string with:

snmp-server community MY_STRING ACCESS

Where MY_STRING is your SNMP community string and ACCESS is one of "RO" for read-only access or "RW" for read-write access.  For CatOS, you configure a community string with:

set snmp community ACCESS MY_STRING

PIX/ASA is different.  The PIX and ASA only support SNMPv1 (and in later version of code SNMPv3).  The PIX will not do SNMPv2c.
