NAME

       iprsetup - Internet Protocol router setup

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -s

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -sd

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -r

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -rd

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -fvalue

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -fvalued

       /usr/sbin/iprsetup -d

OPTIONS

       Sets  ipforwarding  and	ipgateway  to  one,  which means the system functions as an IP router.	This option cannot be combined with the -r
       option.	Resets ipforwarding and ipgateway to zero, which means the system does not function as an IP router.  This option cannot  be  com-
       bined  with  the  -s  and  -f options.  Sets ipforwarding and ipgateway to one (like the -s option), and also sets ipfirewall to one, which
       means the system functions as an IP firewall.  Additionally, sets ipsrcroute and ipchkredirects according to the specified value.  The fol-
       lowing table shows the valid values and their meaning:

	      ----------------------------------------------------------
	      Value   Meaning
	      ----------------------------------------------------------
	      0       Sets both ipsrcroute and ipchkredirects to zero
	      1       Sets ipsrcroute to zero and ipchkredirects to one
	      2       Sets ipsrcroute to one and ipchkredirects to zero
	      3       Sets both ipsrcroute and ipchkredirects to one
	      ----------------------------------------------------------

	      This  option  cannot  be combined with the -r option. Only application gateways for firewall services use this option.  Displays the
	      values of ipforwarding and ipgateway. The values are displayed after the values are changed when combined with the -s,  -r,  and	-f
	      options.

DESCRIPTION

       The  iprsetup  command  sets the ipgateway and ipforwarding variables in the running kernel allowing your system to function as an Internet
       Protocol router.

       When ipfirewall variable is set to one, the following variables are also set: Indicates whether IP source-routed packets are  accepted  (1)
       or dropped immediately (0).  Indicates whether ICMP Redirect messages are authenticated (1) or accepted with no authentication (0).

       The  iprsetup  command  is  automatically  executed  by	netsetup  when	you  configure	your  network daemons.	It is also executed by the
       /sbin/init.d/inet script when you reboot your system or restart the network on your system.
