Don't know about 3.23, but on 4.1.4 it's

no -o ipforwarding=0

Not stupid. But as far as I recall you don't. It's default. Otherwise
you would do something like
no -o ipforwarding=1
Hope it helps and I'm right.

You can enter no -o ipforwarding=1 at the command line, and this
change will take effect immediately, however, when the system is
rebooted, it will be set back to a default vault of 0 (ipforwarding
off). If you want the change to take affect permanently, add the
command to the /etc/rc.net file.

Actually, ipforwarding is on by default in 3.2.5. If you want to toggle
ipforwarding on or off, us the 'no' command. The number one (1) means TRUE
while the number zero (0) means false.

no -o ipforwarding=1 => ipforwarding is on
no -o ipforwarding=0 => ipforwarding is off

These changes are lost after a reboot; therefore, you might want to add an
entry in your local bootup script.

Correct me if I am wrong...
