Chapter 13. Kernel network parameters

Table of Contents
13.1. Reverse Path Filtering
13.2. Obscure settings
13.2.1. Generic ipv4
13.2.2. Per device settings
13.2.3. Neighbor policy
13.2.4. Routing settings

The kernel has lots of parameters which can be tuned for different circumstances. While, as usual, the default parameters serve 99% of installations very well, we don't call this the Advanced HOWTO for the fun of it!

The interesting bits are in /proc/sys/net, take a look there. Not everything will be documented here initially, but we're working on it.

In the meantime you may want to have a look at the Linux-Kernel sources; read the file Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt. Most of the features are explained there.
