# Useful Sysctl Settings
Sysctl on Linux systems can tweak many useful behaviors. When it comes to a routing protocol suite like FRRouting there are numerous values depending on your use case that make sense to optimize.
The below sysctl values provide a logical set of defaults which can be further optimized.
```
# /etc/sysctl.d/99frr_defaults.conf
# Place this file at the location above and reload the device.
# or run the sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/99frr_defaults.conf
