SNMP Logging Flooding into /var/log/message

Another problem I have been facing with default installation of SNMP is the /var/log/message will be flooding with snmpd log as example above. To overcome this, add following line into /etc/sysconfig/snmpd using text editor:
OPTIONS="-LS 5 d"
Save and restart SNMPD to get affected. To verify, just run following command and make sure the options value is included:
$ ps aux | grep snmpd
root   32382   0.0   0.1   197160   5076   ? S   13:04   0:00        /usr/sbin/snmpd -LS 5 d
This options will log from level 0 to 4 based on log level below:
0 – Emergencies – System is unusable
1 – Alerts – Immediate action needed
2 – Critical – Critical conditions
3 – Errors – Error conditions
4 – Warnings – Warning conditions
5 – Notifications – Informational messages
6 – Informational – Normal but significant conditions
7 – Debugging – Debugging messages
