Access Server Administrators’ Reference Guide 16 • IP
Note 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 inap-
propriate value.
The following options are available:
• forwarding(1)—acting as a gateway
• not-forwarding(2)—not acting as a gateway
Note Setting forwarding to not-forwarding will prevent the access server from for-
warding packets to dial-in users.
Default Time-To-Live (ipDefaultTTL)
The default value inserted into the Time-To-Live (TTL) field in the IP header of datagrams originating from this
entity, whenever a TTL value is not already supplied by the transport layer protocol.

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the most widely used protocol among the TCP/IP suite. The access
server provides management and statistical information on TCP.
