+Client Configuration
+====================
+
+Updating Client Configuration
+-----------------------------
+
+Certain client configurations can be applied at runtime. To check if a configuration option can be applied (taken into affect by a client) at runtime, use the `config help` command::
+
+ ceph config help debug_client
+ debug_client - Debug level for client
+ (str, advanced) Default: 0/5
+ Can update at runtime: true
+
+ The value takes the form 'N' or 'N/M' where N and M are values between 0 and 99. N is the debug level to log (all values below this are included), and M is the level to gather and buffer in memory. In the event of a crash, the most recent items <= M are dumped to the log file.
+
+`config help` tells if a given configuration can be applied at runtime along with the defaults and a description of the configuration option.
+
+To update a configuration option at runtime, use the `config set` command::
+
+ ceph config set client debug_client 20/20
+
+Note that this changes a given configuration for all clients.
+
+To check configured options use the `config get` command::
+
+ ceph config get client
+ WHO MASK LEVEL OPTION VALUE RO
+ client advanced debug_client 20/20
+ global advanced osd_pool_default_min_size 1
+ global advanced osd_pool_default_size 3

+Client Config Reference
+------------------------
+
+``client_acl_type``
+
+:Description: Set the ACL type. Currently, only possible value is ``"posix_acl"`` to enable POSIX ACL, or an empty string. This option only takes effect when the ``fuse_default_permissions`` is set to ``false``.
+
+:Type: String
+:Default: ``""`` (no ACL enforcement)
