Description

The snmpd service can be disabled with the following command:

$ sudo systemctl mask --now snmpd.service

Rationale

Running SNMP software provides a network-based avenue of attack, and should be disabled if not needed.

Remediation

Ansible playbook

The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
