At present we are now running ipfw on a BSD box to do routing, with a divert rule to ipltd which enables us to bandwidth restrict the subnets. We are considering using adress translation as we'd like to conserve IP space. Our understanding is that we will need another divert rule to natd. The man ipfw states ' If a packet matches more than one divert and/or tee rule, all but the last are ignored.' Now we are concerned that this might mean only one divert is possible - or does it mean diverts to a specific port are only allowed once (loop avoidance)? Or if we natd first, will the 'altered' IP allow us to have another divert rule as it's a 'different' IP passing through the ipfw rules? Anyone have any thoughts/information on this subject?
