Re: Rout looping through local host.

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Yes, patch works for output routes only. May be you can try to forward traffic with ip rules with iif parameter. Make sure you have rules and routes for both directions. Of course, there must be some IP addresses because routes work only for devices with IPs. SNAT should be able to assign non-local external IP address, not possible for MASQUERADE, you have to use SNAT everywhere. That is, don't configure the SNAT addresses. Then you should not see local IPs in the traffic. Not sure for other pitfalls.

Thank you for taking the time to reply to me.

Do to time constraints I ended up falling back to the old tried and true stand by of using a User Mode Linux system to do the routing that I needed to. My system currently has the main routing context and multiple UML routers to that each have another routing context.

Again, thank you and have a nice day.
