I suggest to solve this problem without relying on the request ID.
There are several possibilities. You can use the IP address, the SNMP
session handle, or you can create your own "tag" which you pass to the
callback function in order to quickly identify the response.
I never really needed the request ID in my scripts. The only reason
for making the request ID available at all is that it helps to debug
things.
