hi everybody ,,,
I have a unique problem.
 
I have created a rule in the prerouting chain in the nat table to DNAT every packet coming from 10.11.12.0/24 network to the webserver running on the local machine
 
Now i want one of the IP from this pool to be exempted from this rule. I had put a rule in the mangle table so as to RETURN  from prerouting chain.
 
I think that this RETURN is not working. I would like to know the other ways i can make a machine exempted from the DNAT that is occuring.
 
Kindly suggest
