Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Doc: Refer to ip-sysctl.txt for strict vs. loose rp_filter mode
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2009 15:40:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1235400043.2351.52.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090222.000656.74298101.davem@davemloft.net>


The IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER Kconfig describes the rp_filter
proc option.  Recent changes added a loose mode.
Instead of documenting this change too places, refer to
the document describing it:
 Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt

I'm considering moving the rp_filter description away
from the Kconfig file into ip-sysctl.txt.
