Routing を実行している Linux が ARP 解決待ちの間に保持するパケットの数
Linux にルータをやらせたとき、転送パケットのNext-HopのARP解決待ちの間に何個分のパケットをキューに保持してくれるかという話。

neigh/default/unres_qlen_bytes - INTEGER The maximum number of bytes which may be used by packets queued for each unresolved address by other network layers. (added in linux 3.3) Setting negative value is meaningless and will return error. Default: SK_WMEM_MAX, (same as net.core.wmem_default). Exact value depends on architecture and kernel options, but should be enough to allow queuing 256 packets of medium size. neigh/default/unres_qlen - INTEGER The maximum number of packets which may be queued for each unresolved address by other network layers. (deprecated in linux 3.3) : use unres_qlen_bytes instead. Prior to linux 3.3, the default value is 3 which may cause unexpected packet loss. The current default value is calculated according to default value of unres_qlen_bytes and true size of packet. Default: 101
sysctlでパケット数とバイト数によって設定される。パケット数のデフォルトは101。
