# Kernel sysctl configuration file for Linux
#
# Version 1.14 - 2019-04-05
# Michiel Klaver - IT Professional
# http://klaver.it/linux/ for the latest version - http://klaver.it/bsd/ for a BSD variant
#
# This file should be saved as /etc/sysctl.conf and can be activated using the command:
# sysctl -e -p /etc/sysctl.conf
#
# For binary values, 0 is disabled, 1 is enabled. See sysctl(8) and sysctl.conf(5) for more details.
#
# Tested with: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS kernel version 3.13
# Debian 7 kernel version 3.2
# CentOS 7 kernel version 3.10
#
# Intended use for dedicated server systems at high-speed networks with loads of RAM and bandwidth available
# Optimised and tuned for high-performance web/ftp/mail/dns servers with high connection-rates
# DO NOT USE at busy networks or xDSL/Cable connections where packetloss can be expected
