Are you looking for /proc/sys/net/ip4? AFAICT /proc/net hasn't
existed since everyone switched over to the 2.6 kernel (which happened
in Fedora Core 2 in 2004).
With current systemd (running systemd v202), the entire IPv4 branch
appears to have been replaced.
systemd's involvement with /proc begins and ends with mounting it.
The kernel defines its contents and they will be the same regardless
of which init system you use.
Need guidance
- How to configure/re-configure the TCP/IP Congestion Control algorithm
- How to specify custom value for TCP/IP buffers, etc
This page seems to offer a good overview of the mechanisms for configuring this:

There's probably someone around here more versed in this, though.
