Default configuration files locations:

|
|
1. `/usr/local/lib/sysctl.d/*.conf`
|

1. `/usr/lib/sysctl.d/*.conf`
|

1. `/lib/sysctl.d/*.conf`
|
|
1. `/etc/sysctl.conf`
|

|
## TL;DR
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Show the value of a single setting.
|
|
sysctl kernel.ostype
|
|
sysctl vm.swappiness
|
|
|
|
# Show the values of all settings.
|
|
sysctl -a
|
|
|
|
# Change the current value of a setting.
|
|
sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=10
|
|
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
|
|
|
|
# Reload settings from specific configuration files.
|
|
sudo sysctl -p
|
|
sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/99-swappiness.conf
|
|
|
|
# Reload settings from the default configuration files locations.
|
|
sudo sysctl --system
|
|
|
|
# Set up persistent settings.
|
|
echo 'vm.swappiness=10' | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
|
|
echo 'vm.swappiness = 5' | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.d/99-swappiness.conf
|
|
```
