Hi,

I'm trying to map a range of private IP addresses to a range of public
IP addresses. For this, I'm using SNAT:

    # iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s <private range> -d ! <private
range> -j SNAT --to-source <public range>

The public range is higher than private range. I can see from
conntrack that the last 2 octets of original and natted IP addresses
are always the same. Can I be sure that the mapping is always correct
without parsing conntrack from time to time because it's heavy
processing? Or is there any other way that I can make sure the mapping
is always correct?

Thanks.

Shirley

    it's seems to me that using NETMAP target will be more interesting 
to you than using SNAT. AFAIK, SNAT does not guarantees you that.

First I only casually use net filter normally, and never before in with a bridged configuration so I apologize for any missing details.

What I need to do is have each connection from one box on the local side of the bridge to appear to come from different IP's the system currently. As I've stated the system that I've been told to enact these changes on appears to be a transparent bridge configuration.

The bridge is currently running ubuntu 9.04
2.6.28-19-server #61-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 27 00:22:27 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
An outsourced vendor is using shorewall version 4.0.15 for fw managment.
the virtual bridge interface is br0
the external interface is eth0
the internal interface is eth2
The sourcehost appears to have a router external to the bridge as it's default gw.

I've been trying a rule similar to:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o br0 -p tcp -s <unnated source host> -d <external webhost> -j SNAT --to-source <natted sourcehost>


What I see off of bridge using "tcpdump -ni eth0 host <external webhost>"


listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes

I did turn on ip forwarding by doing:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

The firewall does appear to have all the rules needed to track the connections?
user@system:/home/user# cat base.fwr1 | grep ESTABLISHED
-A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A all2fw -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A all2loc -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A all2net -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A all2world -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A fw2world -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A loc2fw -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A loc2net -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A loc2world -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A net2fw -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A net2loc -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

-A world2all -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A world2fw -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A world2loc -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
