Hello I'm running 2.6.22.12 kernel I would like to tweak netfilter parameters in sysctl.conf (I'm running debian Etch) My server is a traffic manager setuped as a bridge. We filter P2P (ipp2p, l7filter) and SIP/RTP for an amount 60Mbits I must tweak conntrack default values to use most of available memory and to try to avoid overhead ... How can apply these sysctl.conf values to the new nf_conntrack style : net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_max = 8388608 net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established= 57600 net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_udp_timeout = 57600 net.ipv4.netfilter.ip_conntrack_udp_timeout_stream = 57600 By default I've got theses values : net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_generic_timeout = 50 net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_max = 65536 net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_count = 0 net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_buckets = 8192 net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_checksum = 1 net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_log_invalid = 0 Which value can I put for tcp and udp timeout ? I found some example but small wireless router not 60Mbits traffic shapper ;) So I'm not sure what should be the best values We have something as 2000 customers (I'm working for a cable provider) that going through this server, Many thanks for your help - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
