you can try this.

for f in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/log_martians; do
                if [ -e $f ] ; then
                        echo "1" > $f
                        echo  -n -e "..""enabled."
                else
                        echo -e "support not found!"
                fi
        done
