Hi all,
As I read into the forum, NATting (SNAT) is expensive, using iptables to translate IP sucks the performance of the system. I just want to know if IProute2 can handle NATting and if it handels NATting can it performed faster than iptables?
thanks,
Wennie
No, ip does not "do" NAT, only iptables does. But it is not THAT much
of a performance hit; I'll bet you can't measure its effect.
