Ivan:
There are three escenaries:
(1) Packets destined to our machine
(2) Packets originated inside our machine
(3) Packets forwarded
The table only have a reference to escenary (1) and the diagram after
the tables hits all escenaries.
Not all packets traverse all chains, that depends on the escenary.
Hope this helps,
Jorge Dávila.

Hello,
Look here:

According to the diagram, there is routing decision after
filter/FORWARD. However, according to the tables before, there is no
such routing (there is only one routing before mangle/FORWARD). The
question is, which one is correct?
