		+	Explanation of Common Settings
		+	- fs.file-max: Sets the maximum number of file handles that the kernel will allocate.
		+	- net.core.somaxconn: Maximum number of connections that can be queued for acceptance.
		+	- net.core.netdev_max_backlog: Maximum number of packets, queued on the input side, when the interface receives packets faster than the kernel can process them.
		+	- net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range: Range of ports used for outgoing connections.
		+	- net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse and net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle: Enable reuse and recycling of TIME_WAIT sockets.
		+	- net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies: Protect against SYN flood attacks.
		+	- net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog: Maximum number of remembered connection requests, which have not received an acknowledgment from connecting clients.
		+	- vm.swappiness: Controls the tendency of the kernel to move processes out of physical memory and onto the swap disk.
		+	- vm.vfs_cache_pressure: Controls the tendency of the kernel to reclaim the memory which is used for caching of directory and inode objects.
		+	- kernel.shmmax and kernel.shmall: Control the maximum shared memory segment size and total amount of shared memory, respectively.
