To stop Avahi from spamming syslog, copy /lib/systemd/system/avahi-daemon.service to /etc/systemd/system. Then edit the newly copied /etc/systemd/system/avahi-daemon.service and add "StandardOutput=null" to the [Service] section. Finally, run `systemctl daemon-reload && systemctl restart avahi-daemon.service` to make the change take effect immediately. > I was online or on the phone to Linksys for over 3 hours.
