Re: Change source or destination for packets arriving locally (for Direct Server Return)

Hi,

I have to check it out, but in the mean time I already wrote my small iptables plugin to rewrite the dst-addr.

let's call it pre-alpha:

Hello,

I'm trying to setup L3 load balancing (with direct server return) which requires me to send back or receive packets with a certain src/dst address, but for these packets the dst address is replaced on the load balancer, then
routed and are arriving on my linux container.



I guess you could do this with nftables. You can perform this kind of
load balancing with nftables out of the box [0].
Note that nftables should be able to work with DSCP, so you can
combine both things (matching, load-balancing) with the same
technology.

Please, read the docs in our wiki and do some tests.  After that, it
would be great if you come back here and report your experience :-)
Perhaps we can generate a concrete example and put it in the wiki for
future references.
