I got one response (from John McNulty) who suggested that I look at the
iprsetup command. I did, and it looks like the way that I want to go is to
use the command /usr/sbin/iprsetup -r. It appears that I need to go into the
/etc/rc.config file and set ROUTER to something other than "yes" to get this
command to be issued at boot time.
Thanks John!
