Oracle Linux 6 defaults to reverse path filtering in strict
mode. Some Oracle products and network storage devices work
more reliably with reverse path filtering in loose mode. To
enable loose mode, issue the following command (where
iface
is the network interface, for
example, eth1
).
# sysctl net.ipv4.conf.iface
.rp_filter=2
The default setting is 1 for strict mode. (Bug ID 10649976)
