calling sysctl at startup - how?

What is the “right” way to run a sysctl command when the system boots up?  I’ve read that using the /etc/rc.* files is discouraged.  I want to run this command to enable large amounts of shared memory when the system boots:

 

sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmax=0x80000000 kern.sysv.shmseg=8 kern.sysv.shmall=0x80000000

 

 

Thanks,

 

 

Norm Green
