[Ilugc] Sed should affect the input file

What is the option should I need to set, so that the replacement string
should affect the Input file
Example:
sed 's/<old>/<new>/g' input_file
Then If I open input_file the file the effect should take place in the
input file.
Is it possible to do that?
Use Tusar Nayak's response to me as,
use -i option for inline replacement.
sed -i 's/<old>/<new>/g' input_file
It is also working perfectly as perl -pi.
PS: Tusar Nayak, please send reponse to ALL :-)
HTH.
Thanks,
