sys_attrs_dli(5)
NAME
  sys_attrs_dli - dli subsystem attributes

DESCRIPTION
  This reference page lists and describes attributes for the Data Link
  Interface (dli) kernel subsystem. Refer to the sys_attrs(5) reference page
  for an introduction to the topic of kernel subsystem attributes.



  must_be_root
      A value that enables (1) or disables (0) the requirement that the user
      of the raw socket interface must be root. Setting this attribute to 0
      allows any user to use the raw socket interface to DLI.

      DECnet and STREAMS protocol stacks use a DLI-provided raw interface to
      the data link.  DLI also provides a raw socket interface.

      Default value: 1 (enabled)

      In a TruCluster environment, the value of this attribute must be the
      same for all member systems.



  max_ifq_length
      The number of received packets that are queued to DLI.

      Default value: 512 (packets)

      Minimum value: 0

      Maximum value: 1024

      If many packets are dropped, you may want to increase the value.
