Putting "bigstart restart snmpd" into crontab should work for periodically bouncing the snmp service, but that configuration may not survive an upgrade or hotfix (plus it shouldn't be dying in the first place). I would open a support case with F5 to see if they can tell what may be causing the snmp service to hang up.
