Overview of Tuning IP Suite Parameters
For new information about IP forwarding, see New and Changed TCP/IP Parameters.
You can set all of the tuning parameters described in this chapter
by using the ndd command except for the following parameters:.
These parameters can only be set in the /etc/system file.
For example, use the following syntax to set TCP/IP parameters by using the
ndd command:
# ndd -set driver parameter
For more information, see ndd(1M).
Although the SMF framework provides a method for managing system services, ndd
commands are still included in system startup scripts. For more information on creating
a startup script, see Using Run Control Scripts in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.
IP Suite Parameter Validation
All parameters described in this section are checked to verify that they fall
in the parameter range. The parameter's range is provided with the description for
each parameter.
