17a7f7f624SMasahiro Yamada	help
181da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  If you intend to run your Linux box mostly as a router, i.e. as a
191da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  computer that forwards and redistributes network packets, say Y; you
201da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  will then be presented with several options that allow more precise
211da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  control about the routing process.
221da177e4SLinus Torvalds
231da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  The answer to this question won't directly affect the kernel:
241da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  answering N will just cause the configurator to skip all the
251da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  questions about advanced routing.
261da177e4SLinus Torvalds
271da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  Note that your box can only act as a router if you enable IP
281da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  forwarding in your kernel; you can do that by saying Y to "/proc
291da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  file system support" and "Sysctl support" below and executing the
301da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  line

351da177e4SLinus Torvalds
36b2cc46a8SJesper Dangaard Brouer	  If you turn on IP forwarding, you should consider the rp_filter, which
371da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  automatically rejects incoming packets if the routing table entry
381da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  for their source address doesn't match the network interface they're
391da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  arriving on. This has security advantages because it prevents the
401da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  so-called IP spoofing, however it can pose problems if you use
411da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  asymmetric routing (packets from you to a host take a different path
421da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  than packets from that host to you) or if you operate a non-routing
431da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  host which has several IP addresses on different interfaces. To turn
44d7394372SDave Jones	  rp_filter on use:
451da177e4SLinus Torvalds
46d7394372SDave Jones	  echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<device>/rp_filter
47750e9fadSNicolas Dichtel	   or

881da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  for those packets. The router considers all these paths to be of
