Why? Without having it seen in practice, I am convinced that pppoe packets being sent into a bridge or received from it will only ever appear in ebtables and not iptables nor arptables, logically because they are pppoe and not ipv4 nor arp, respectively. Hence it will not show up in the ip_tables nat table either. -- 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
