IPROUTE.SYS(8) XR32 REFERENCE MANUAL 29/1/2013
NAME
IPROUTE.SYS -- IP Router Configuration File (optional).
DESCRIPTION
This optional file is only required if you wish to route IP
traffic, or use any of XR32's IP facilities such as Telnet,
Ping, Traceroute, HTTP server etc. I.e. it is not required
if you are operating a pure AX25 / Netrom system, although
you are urged to route amateur IP if possible.
The file is read only at boot-up, or by an "IP ROUTE LOAD"
command so if you make changes to it, they won't take
effect until you reboot or use that command. XR32 does
not write to this file.
If IPROUTE.SYS is present, it saves you having to enter
the IP routing manually. To reduce the number of
configuration files, this file also contains the permanent
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol), NAT (Network Address
Translation), RIP (Routing Information Protocol) entries,
and IP filtering rules.
FILE FORMAT
IPROUTE.SYS is a text file. Within the file, each entry
must be on a separate line, and there must be one or more
spaces or tabs between each field. Entries are not case
sensitive. Comments are allowed, providing they are on a
line beginning with a semicolon ';' or hash '#'. Blank
lines are ignored and lines may be up to 255 characters
long.
Commands accepted in this file are as follows:
ACL <PERMIT | DENY>
ARP <ADD | PUBLISH>
DUN <ADD | LOG>
IP <CMD | ROUTE ADD | ROUTE DEFAULT | QUIET | TTL>
NAT <ADD>
RIP <ADD | LEARN | REFUSE | TIMEOUT>
ACL commands control the Access Control List, which
specifies the IP addresses which are allowed to access
and be accessed by XR32.
ARP commands are used to add "static" entries to the ARP
table. These are mainly used for slow RF links.
DUN commands are used to configure "dial-up" routing.
IP commands are used to add routes to the IP routing table
and to configure the TTL, stealth level, and
availability of the IPROUTE command.
NAT commands add Network Address Translation entries to the
NAT table.
RIP commands control the RIP98 automatic route learning
system.
All of these commands are described in more detail in their
own section 1 MAN pages (see below).
FILES
If present, IPROUTE.SYS must be located in the same
directory as XR32.EXE.
