I have 2 WAN connections on my Linux router and I'd like to do load-balancing of packets relating to the same connection. There are lots of examples out on the net for setting up routes and rules to send packets to both links - and I have got those working - however I want to NAT the source IP address of the outgoing packets based on the packet MARK so that I can make each packet go out with the IP address of the outgoing interface. >From whatever I've read and seen myself, the NAT table is only traversed for the first packet of a connection. Hence packets in a single connection will always be SNATed to the same IP - Hence the packets going out on one of the interfaces will not have the right source IP. I'm starting to take a look at ip_nat_core.c ip_nat_standalone.c - would it make sense to try to modify those to achieve what I want ? So far I've been using dumb NAT to achieve this - but it is very primitive. Thanks in advance. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
