using bering and bering-uclibc, for routers not firewalls i keep running into the arp table limit and the ip_conntrack limit.
the arp limit is noticed by the message 'neighbour table overflow' in dmsg, and fixed by echo 16 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh1 echo 256 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh2 echo 2048 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh3 more info at: http://www.rstack.net/tuning_proc_for_arp.html the ip_conntrack limit is noticed by 'ip_conntrack table full dropping packet' and fixed by something like echo 65000 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max both of these limits make the box drop packets. so my question is. Can these entries be incorperated into the lrcfg meny somewhere. with a lot of the nice comments that we'v all come to love :) i have noticed most of these limits the hard way. By customers complaining about poor performance at the worst possible time (tm) or is there already such a system, and i am just to blind to spot it ? the network.options maybee ? -- Ronny Aasen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
