Hi Ming....
 
I feel your router itself should not fwd that packet to ur Linux Box and incase if any such packet reaches ur box yes it will definately be fwded to the default GW which infact is your router.....

Hi,

My linux box connects to router directly through a direct connected FE interface. The Linux default gateway points to the ip address on the router. My application needs to return all ip traffic that not destined to my linux box back to router.
For example:

Linux Box <---------> Router
10.1.1.10                10.1.1.1
default gw: 10.1.1.1
When 77.1.1.1 packet arrives to Linux box, the linux need to return the packet back to router.

Shouldn't the default gw points to router can do the job?

Thanks,
 
Ming
