Hello, I'm trying to understand http://www.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial/images/tables_traverse.jpg Would a packet created locally and sent over the loopback interface traverse the POSTROUTING and PREROUTING hooks as implied by the diagram, or does the last Routing Decision notice that it's bound for the local host and send it straight to the beginning of the INPUT hook?
