Hi All,

Kindly confirm  that 'kill -9' is valid way to stop snmpd.

I am writing service script for systemctl  to stop snmpd and would like to understand correct way of stopping the daemon. According to Source code agent/snmpd.c ,  SIGTERM (kill -9) , SIGINT (ctl+c) are for snmpd shutdown.

SIGTERM is not kill -9, it is kill -16. kill -9 is SIGKILL
