Linux as strong end host



Hi!

Among many usages, Linux can be used/configured as an "End
System" (a.k.a. host) or a router.

When using Linux as an ES (End System), Linux can be configured/used
as supporting either the "Strong ES Model" or the "Weak ES Model". The
default for a Linux ES is the "Weak ES Model".

See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1122 regarding "Strong ES Model" and
"Weak ES Model".

The question is, what is the easiest/best way to configure/setup Linux
as an End System supporting the "Strong ES Model"?
