Dear Amos,

Thanks for your great hint of "tcpdump gets packets before any of the
iptables etc handling gets done to them" and " We have to rely on
ebtables/iptables LOG functionality for those bits"

Now I start debugging iptables, using
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 8080 -j LOG
--log-prefix "TEST: "

from node-s (sender), we run [node-s (sender), 10.0.1.1, node-r,
10.0.2.1 (receiver), the squid3 machine is 10.0.3.1]

wget 10.0.2.1:8080

while we still see
"19:20:09.439059 IP nodes-links.40520 > noder-linkr.http-alt: Flags
[S], seq 4014254024, win 5840, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
68449700 ecr 0,nop,wscale 6],"
in tcpdump, we see nothing in the iptables log

in contrast, if we run 'wget 10.0.3.1:8080' (directly connect to 8080
port of squid3 machine, although there is no service)
we see information in both tcpdump
"19:26:51.347175 IP nodes-links.41022 > nodec1-tblink-l9.http-alt:
Flags [S], seq 1779139991, win 5840, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
68550176 ecr 0,nop,wscale 6], length 0
19:26:51.347287 IP nodec1-tblink-l9.http-alt > nodes-links.41022:
Flags [R.], seq 0, ack 1779139992, win 0, length 0
"
and iptables log
"
Mar  5 19:24:09 nodec1 kernel: [28094.303462] TEST: IN=eth0 OUT=
MAC=00:04:23:ae:cc:38:00:0e:0c:68:a8:58:08:00 SRC=10.0.1.1

Mar  5 19:24:09 nodec1 kernel: [28094.303495] TEST: IN=eth0 OUT=

SPT=41021 DPT=8080 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
"

Can we conclude the error was happened due to
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 8080 -j LOG
--log-prefix "TEST: "
cannot pick up the 8080 packet forwarded by the switch? Can some
packet loss happen before this step?

I am sorry I am not very familiar with the linux kernel/system...and
bother you so much trouble...

Thanks a lo!
