New Revision: 333176
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/333176
Log:
Fix in the documentation that the default hop limit is not 30, but
the value of the sysctl variable net.inet6.ip6.hlim.
This is true since
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=122574
The default of 30 (which was correct up to r122574) was incorrectly
documented in
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=130268
Thanks to Timo Voelker for makeing me aware of the inconsistency
between to code and the documentation.
