Yes. I think you need a trapd that receives the trap, calls a script that 
sends out the v3 trap. Should not be too difficult to script it.

But beware! SNMPv3 takes care für correct identification of the devices. 
SNMPv3 uses a SNMPEngineID that is unique for every agent. So your management 
system will think it receives traps from your middle box, NOT from the device 
that originally sent out the trap.

Perhaps you cold fake it (man-in-the-middle attack) but only if the data is 
not authenticated. SNMPEngineID is used to authenticate the data.

Conclusion: Get an agent on the original device that is SNMPv3 capable. Talk 
to the vendor.
