On the router, I'm using this script :

ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 eth0
ifconfig br0 192.168.1.70 up
ifconfig br0:0 192.168.2.70 up
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -d 192.168.2.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.2.250 -j DNAT
--to-destination 192.168.2.50
modprobe nf_nat_ftp
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

And for logging :

modprobe ipt_LOG
iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 21 -j TRACE
iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 21 -j TRACE
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 21 -j TRACE
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -p tcp --sport 21 -j TRACE

I only have one interface (eth0), that's why I use br0 and br0:0, so
the wireshark captures show each packet twice, input on br0 and output
on br0:0 (or input on br0:0 and output on br0) when capturing on eth0.

On the ftp client/server :

ifconfig eth2 192.168.1.50
ifconfig eth2:0 192.168.2.50
ip route del 192.168.2.0/24
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth2 via 192.168.1.70

And then I try to connect to 192.168.2.250, this will use the router
192.168.1.70 on eth2, wille be DNATted to 192.168.2.50 and will come
back on eth2:0 on the ftp server.

Like the router captures, we have eth2 and eth2:0 together when
capturing on eth2.

This configuration will work fine, but if I run any of this on the
router, it will not work well anymore :

ifconfig br0:0 192.168.2.7 up

or

ifconfig br0:0 192.168.2.170 up

I don't think I'm using anything else.
