SetIpStatistics function

-description

The SetIpStatistics function toggles IP forwarding on or off and sets the default time-to-live (TTL) value for the local computer.

-parameters

-param pIpStats [in]

A pointer to a MIB_IPSTATS structure. The caller should set the dwForwarding and dwDefaultTTL members of this structure to the new values. To keep one of the members at its current value, use MIB_USE_CURRENT_TTL or MIB_USE_CURRENT_FORWARDING.

-returns

If the function succeeds, the return value is NO_ERROR.

If the function fails, the return value is one of the following error codes.

Return code Description
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED
Access is denied. This error is returned on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 under several conditions that include the following: the user lacks the required administrative privileges on the local computer or the application is not running in an enhanced shell as the built-in Administrator (RunAs administrator).
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER
An invalid parameter was passed to the function. This error is returned if a NULL pointer is passed in the pIpStats parameter. This error is also returned if the dwForwarding member in the MIB_IPSTATS structure pointed to by the pIpStats parameter contains a value other than MIB_IP_NOT_FORWARDING, MIB_IP_FORWARDING, or MIB_USE_CURRENT_FORWARDING.
Other
Use FormatMessage to obtain the message string for the returned error.

-remarks

To set only the default TTL, the caller can also use the SetIpTTL function.

On Windows Vista and later, the SetIpStatistics function can only be called by a user logged on as a member of the Administrators group. If SetIpStatistics is called by a user that is not a member of the Administrators group, the function call will fail and ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED is returned.

The SetIpStatistics function can also fail because of user account control (UAC) on Windows Vista and later. If an application that contains this function is executed by a user logged on as a member of the Administrators group other than the built-in Administrator, this call will fail unless the application has been marked in the manifest file with a requestedExecutionLevel set to requireAdministrator. If the application lacks this manifest file, a user logged on as a member of the Administrators group other than the built-in Administrator must then be executing the application in an enhanced shell as the built-in Administrator (RunAs administrator) for this function to succeed.

Note   On Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and later, this function executes a privileged operation. For this function to execute successfully, the caller must be logged on as a member of the Administrators group or the NetworkConfigurationOperators group.
