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

|

<!--more-->
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< glossary_tooltip text="Container" term_id="container" >}} runtimes and
|
||||
network plugins may rely on `sysctl` values being set a certain way.
