IMHO, I wouldn't introduce the combined latency and fallability of ICMP 
request/response packet processing and SNMP query/response handling into the 
authentication/authorization process.  It seems vulnerable to failure and lacking in 
scalability.  

ICMP packets dropped or delayed somewhere between the host running your script and the 
end-user would be problematic, as would dropped or delayed SNMP query responses.

Just my two cents...
