.SH NAME
IP_TRANSPARENT
\-
transparent proxying
.SH LIBRARY
Standard C library
.RI ( libc ,\~ \-lc )
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.BR "#include <netinet/in.h>" " /* Definition of " IP* " constants */"
.B #include <sys/socket.h>
.P
.BI int\~setsockopt(int\~ sockfd ,\~IPPROTO_IP,\~IP_TRANSPARENT,
.BI " const\~int\~*" enable ,\~sizeof(int));
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Setting this boolean option enables transparent proxying on this socket.
.P
This socket option allows
the calling application to bind to a nonlocal IP address and operate
both as a client and a server with the foreign address as the local endpoint.
.P
This requires that routing be set up in a way that
packets going to the foreign address are routed through the TProxy box
(i.e., the system hosting the application that employs the
.B IP_TRANSPARENT
socket option).
.P
Enabling this socket option requires superuser privileges
(the
.B CAP_NET_ADMIN
or
.B CAP_NET_RAW
capability).
.P
TProxy redirection with the iptables TPROXY target also requires that
this option be set on the redirected socket.
.SH ERRORS

.BR IPPROTO_IP (2const).
See
.BR setsockopt (2).
See
.BR ip (7).
.SH STANDARDS
Linux.
.SH HISTORY
Linux 2.6.24.
