Would you mind providing an example use? ebtables -t broute ! -p arp -j DROP ebtables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i br0 \ -p arp --arp-opcode request --arp-ip-dst mysubnet/CIDR \ -j arpreply --arpreply-mac \ $(cat /sys/class/net/br0/address) Something like that it was. ARP proxying can be helpful when your entire mysubnet/CIDR is direct-attached at the ISP's end but you don't want to bridge your network (for that would mean more ebtables and iptables rules) but instead force routing. -- 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
