Note that dropping the TCP + timestamps option for one packet of the connection could disrupt some + middleboxes: even if it should be unlikely, they could drop the packet + or block the connection. This is a per-namespace sysctl. + + Default: 1 (enabled) + +allow_join_initial_addr_port - BOOLEAN + Allow peers to send join requests to the IP address and port number used + by the initial subflow if the value is 1.
