Message-Id: <1383843194-22945-2-git-send-email-florent.fourcot@enst-bretagne.fr> Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2013 17:53:13 +0100 From: Florent Fourcot <florent.fourcot@...t-bretagne.fr> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Florent Fourcot <florent.fourcot@...t-bretagne.fr> Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/3] ipv6: increase maximum lifetime of flow labels If the last RFC 6437 does not give any constraints for lifetime of flow labels, the previous RFC 3697 spoke of a minimum of 120 seconds between reattribution of a flow label. The maximum linger is currently set to 60 seconds and does not allow this configuration without CAP_NET_ADMIN right. This patch increase the maximum linger to 150 seconds, allowing more flexibility to standard users.
