-1. To get better performance the node should be configured with:
-```
-sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max = 33554432
-sysctl -w net.core.wmem_max = 33554432
-```
-2. To run multiple passt VMs with no explicit ports, the node's `fs.file-max` should be increased
-   (for a VM forwards all IPv4 and IPv6 ports, for TCP and UDP, passt needs to create ~2^18 sockets):
-```
-sysctl -w fs.file-max = 9223372036854775807

 > When no ports are explicitly specified, all ports are forwarded,
-> leading to memory overhead of up to 800 Mi.
