How about removing "MPLS_" the name? That way it would be usable by
other AFs too, e.g. for the disable_ipv6 sysctl. Perhaps "ENABLED" is
redundant as well.


I could drop the MPLS to NETCONFA_INPUT_ENABLED; just NETCONFA_INPUT is
not very descriptive.

disable_ipv6 has a completely different meaning, so re-use there does
not seem appropriate.

That's a fair point - disable_ipv6 does more than just disabling the input of IPv6 packets. However, the point still stands in the general sense - why tie the attribute name to an AF if it's not necessary?

Thanks,

Thanks for the review.
