Thank you all for your enlightening feedback, which helped me better
understand my situation.
I can see that in fact I can do with a forward proxy (and not use
iptables at all).
The goal is to transfer data from a data capture device (which
incorporates a web server) lying on a private subnet (without NAT) to
various destinations. I now understand that forwarding identical traffic
using iptables to such destinations (even if it was possible) would not
be the right way. The device can be instructed to send data via http to
whatever destinations via a "local" http forward proxy (which has a
public IP address but can be accessed from the private subnet).
Case closed.
Thank you all again,
Nick
