17          __sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward --value 1
18
19          # On some operating systems, e.g. NetBSD, to prevent an error if the
20          # MIB style name does not exist (e.g. optional kernel components),
21          # name and value can be separated by `?=`. The same effect can be achieved
22          # in cdist by appending a `?` to the key:
23
