reads configuration files from the above directories to configure

<title>Configuration Format</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The configuration files contain a list of variable
|
|
assignments, separated by newlines. Empty lines and lines whose
|
|
first non-whitespace character is <literal>#</literal> or
|
|
<literal>;</literal> are ignored.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that either <literal>/</literal> or <literal>.</literal> may be used as separators within
|
|
sysctl variable names. If the first separator is a slash, remaining slashes and dots are left intact. If
|
|
the first separator is a dot, dots and slashes are interchanged.
|
|
<literal>kernel.domainname=foo</literal> and <literal>kernel/domainname=foo</literal> are equivalent and
|
|
will cause <literal>foo</literal> to be written to
|
|
<filename>/proc/sys/kernel/domainname</filename>. Either
|
|
<literal>net.ipv4.conf.enp3s0/200.forwarding</literal> or
|
|
<literal>net/ipv4/conf/enp3s0.200/forwarding</literal> may be used to refer to
|
|
<filename>/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/enp3s0.200/forwarding</filename>. A glob
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>glob</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> pattern may be
|
|
used to write the same value to all matching keys. Keys for which an explicit pattern exists will be
|
|
excluded from any glob matching. In addition, a key may be explicitly excluded from being set by any
|
|
matching glob patterns by specifying the key name prefixed with a <literal>-</literal> character and not
|
|
followed by <literal>=</literal>, see SYNOPSIS.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Any access permission errors and attempts to write variables not present on the local system are
|
|
logged at debug level and do not cause the service to fail. Other types of errors when setting variables
|
|
are logged with higher priority and cause the service to return failure at the end (after processing
|
|
other variables). As an exception, if a variable assignment is prefixed with a single
|
|
<literal>-</literal> character, failure to set the variable for any reason will be logged at debug level
|
|
and will not cause the service to fail.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The settings configured with <filename>sysctl.d</filename> files will be applied early on boot. The
|
|
network interface-specific options will also be applied individually for each network interface as it
|
|
shows up in the system. (More specifically, <filename>net.ipv4.conf.*</filename>,
|
|
<filename>net.ipv6.conf.*</filename>, <filename>net.ipv4.neigh.*</filename> and
|
|
<filename>net.ipv6.neigh.*</filename>).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Many sysctl parameters only become available when certain
|
|
kernel modules are loaded. Modules are usually loaded on demand,
|
|
e.g. when certain hardware is plugged in or network brought up.
|
|
This means that
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-sysctl.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
which runs during early boot will not configure such parameters if
|
|
they become available after it has run. To set such parameters, it
|
|
is recommended to add an
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>udev</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
rule to set those parameters when they become available.
|
|
Alternatively, a slightly simpler and less efficient option is to
|
|
add the module to
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>modules-load.d</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
causing it to be loaded statically before sysctl settings are
|
|
applied (see example below).</para>

<para>The <option>rp_filter</option> key will be set to "2" for all interfaces, except "hub0". We set

<filename>net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter</filename> first, so any interfaces which are added
|
|
<emphasis>later</emphasis> will get this value (this also covers any interfaces detected while we're
|
|
running). The glob matches any interfaces which were detected <emphasis>earlier</emphasis>. The glob
|
|
will also match <filename>net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter</filename>, which we don't want to set at all, so
|
|
it is explicitly excluded. And "hub0" is excluded from the glob because it has an explicit setting.
