for the hash secret) for IP fragments.
Default: 600
+ipfrag_max_dist - INTEGER
+ ipfrag_max_dist is a non-negative integer value which defines the
+ maximum "disorder" which is allowed among fragments which share a
+ common IP source address. Note that reordering of packets is
+ not unusual, but if a large number of fragments arrive from a source
+ IP address while a particular fragment queue remains incomplete, it
+ probably indicates that one or more fragments belonging to that queue
+ have been lost. When ipfrag_max_dist is positive, an additional check
+ is done on fragments before they are added to a reassembly queue - if
+ ipfrag_max_dist (or more) fragments have arrived from a particular IP
+ address between additions to any IP fragment queue using that source
+ address, it's presumed that one or more fragments in the queue are
+ lost. The existing fragment queue will be dropped, and a new one
+ started. An ipfrag_max_dist value of zero disables this check.
+
+ Using a very small value, e.g. 1 or 2, for ipfrag_max_dist can
+ result in unnecessarily dropping fragment queues when normal
+ reordering of packets occurs, which could lead to poor application
+ performance. Using a very large value, e.g. 50000, increases the
+ likelihood of incorrectly reassembling IP fragments that originate
+ from different IP datagrams, which could result in data corruption.
+ Default: 64
+
INET peer storage:
inet_peer_threshold - INTEGER
TCP variables:
+tcp_abc - INTEGER
+ Controls Appropriate Byte Count defined in RFC3465. If set to
+ 0 then does congestion avoid once per ack. 1 is conservative
+ value, and 2 is more agressive.
+
tcp_syn_retries - INTEGER
Number of times initial SYNs for an active TCP connection attempt
will be retransmitted. Should not be higher than 255. Default value
changed would be a Beowulf compute cluster.
Default: 0
-tcp_westwood - BOOLEAN
- Enable TCP Westwood+ congestion control algorithm.
- TCP Westwood+ is a sender-side only modification of the TCP Reno
- protocol stack that optimizes the performance of TCP congestion
- control. It is based on end-to-end bandwidth estimation to set
- congestion window and slow start threshold after a congestion
- episode. Using this estimation, TCP Westwood+ adaptively sets a
- slow start threshold and a congestion window which takes into
- account the bandwidth used at the time congestion is experienced.
- TCP Westwood+ significantly increases fairness wrt TCP Reno in
- wired networks and throughput over wireless links.
- Default: 0
-
-tcp_vegas_cong_avoid - BOOLEAN
- Enable TCP Vegas congestion avoidance algorithm.
- TCP Vegas is a sender-side only change to TCP that anticipates
- the onset of congestion by estimating the bandwidth. TCP Vegas
- adjusts the sending rate by modifying the congestion
- window. TCP Vegas should provide less packet loss, but it is
- not as aggressive as TCP Reno.
- Default:0
-
-tcp_bic - BOOLEAN
- Enable BIC TCP congestion control algorithm.
- BIC-TCP is a sender-side only change that ensures a linear RTT
- fairness under large windows while offering both scalability and
- bounded TCP-friendliness. The protocol combines two schemes
- called additive increase and binary search increase. When the
- congestion window is large, additive increase with a large
- increment ensures linear RTT fairness as well as good
- scalability. Under small congestion windows, binary search
- increase provides TCP friendliness.
- Default: 0
-
-tcp_bic_low_window - INTEGER
- Sets the threshold window (in packets) where BIC TCP starts to
- adjust the congestion window. Below this threshold BIC TCP behaves
- the same as the default TCP Reno.
- Default: 14
-
-tcp_bic_fast_convergence - BOOLEAN
- Forces BIC TCP to more quickly respond to changes in congestion
- window. Allows two flows sharing the same connection to converge
- more rapidly.
- Default: 1
-
-tcp_default_win_scale - INTEGER
- Sets the minimum window scale TCP will negotiate for on all
- conections.
- Default: 7
-
tcp_tso_win_divisor - INTEGER
This allows control over what percentage of the congestion window
can be consumed by a single TSO frame.
The setting of this parameter is a choice between burstiness and
building larger TSO frames.
- Default: 8
+ Default: 3
tcp_frto - BOOLEAN
Enables F-RTO, an enhanced recovery algorithm for TCP retransmission
where packet loss is typically due to random radio interference
rather than intermediate router congestion.
+tcp_congestion_control - STRING
+ Set the congestion control algorithm to be used for new
+ connections. The algorithm "reno" is always available, but
+ additional choices may be available based on kernel configuration.
+
somaxconn - INTEGER
Limit of socket listen() backlog, known in userspace as SOMAXCONN.
Defaults to 128. See also tcp_max_syn_backlog for additional tuning
Default: 0
icmp_echo_ignore_all - BOOLEAN
+ If set non-zero, then the kernel will ignore all ICMP ECHO
+ requests sent to it.
+ Default: 0
+
icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts - BOOLEAN
- If either is set to true, then the kernel will ignore either all
- ICMP ECHO requests sent to it or just those to broadcast/multicast
- addresses, respectively.
+ If set non-zero, then the kernel will ignore all ICMP ECHO and
+ TIMESTAMP requests sent to it via broadcast/multicast.
+ Default: 1
icmp_ratelimit - INTEGER
Limit the maximal rates for sending ICMP packets whose type matches
will avoid log file clutter.
Default: FALSE
+icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr - BOOLEAN
+
+ If zero, icmp error messages are sent with the primary address of
+ the exiting interface.
+
+ If non-zero, the message will be sent with the primary address of
+ the interface that received the packet that caused the icmp error.
+ This is the behaviour network many administrators will expect from
+ a router. And it can make debugging complicated network layouts
+ much easier.
+
+ Note that if no primary address exists for the interface selected,
+ then the primary address of the first non-loopback interface that
+ has one will be used regarldess of this setting.
+
+ Default: 0
+
igmp_max_memberships - INTEGER
Change the maximum number of multicast groups we can subscribe to.
Default: 20
