SubjectRe[2]: ip forwarding question
> Ungh?  By default, it is '2', which seems to mean 'no routing'.Indeed,

Yep. From rfc1213:


ipForwarding OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
forwarding(1), -- acting as a gateway
not-forwarding(2) -- NOT acting as a gateway
}
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"The indication of whether this entity is acting
as an IP gateway in respect to the forwarding of
datagrams received by, but not addressed to, this
entity. IP gateways forward datagrams. IP hosts
do not (except those source-routed via the host).

Note that for some managed nodes, this object may
take on only a subset of the values possible.
Accordingly, it is appropriate for an agent to
return a `badValue' response if a management
station attempts to change this object to an
inappropriate value."
::= { ip 1 }
