Altering outgoing IP Address without Connection Tracking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'd like to alter the outgoing IP address (from internal to external LB)
on all packets sent on a specific port, without incurring the overhead
of running conntrack.  DNAT of course requires conntrack. But I can't
think of a reason why this simple substitution would require stateful
representation of packet flows.  I was able to find one reference to
someone trying to mange the RAW packets [1] in 2008, but apparently
without success.

Is it currently possible to alter outgoing IP addresses without
connection tracking?
