1.6. Using Network Kernel Tunables with sysctl
Using certain kernel tunables through the
sysctl utility, you can adjust network configuration on a running system and directly affect the networking performance.
To change network settings, use the
sysctl commands. For permanent changes that persist across system restarts, add lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file.
To display a list of all available
sysctl parameters, enter as root:
~]# sysctl -a
For more details on network kernel tunables using
sysctl, see the Using PTP with Multiple Interfaces section in the System Administrator's Guide.
