--- | ||
`sysctl` is a semi-standardized interface for reading or changing the | ||
attributes of the running Unix kernel. | ||
|
||

|
||
On Unix-like systems, `sysctl` is both the name of the tool that administrators | ||
use to view and modify these settings, and also the system call that the tool | ||
uses. | ||
|

network plugins may rely on `sysctl` values being set a certain way. |
