Hello List,
I have noticed that when running a p2p client behind my Bering firewall
my syslog gets flooded with the message:
|firewall kernel: ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet.|
||
Allmost all entries in /proc/net/ip_conntrack pointed to the internal
machine running the client.
|I noticed that the value in |/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max was
set to 1024. I have increased this value to 4096 which seems to have put
a (temporary?) lid on things. My question is if the increase in the
number of connections will somehow have a negative impact on the
performance of the firewall?
Any information is appreciated.
Regards
Chera Bekker
