Using the ipfs Command With -W Option Fails (5040248)

The ipfs command saves and restores information about the state of the Network Address Translation (NAT) and packet-filtering state tables. This utility prevents network connections from being disrupted if the system reboots. If you issue the command with the -W option, ipfs fails to save the kernel state tables. The following error message is displayed:

state:SIOCSTGET: Bad address

Workaround: None.
