Yes. The ip routing tables also allow rule-selection based on fwmarks. This
gives you all the power of netfilter for routing-rule-selection. So, given
something like
iptables -A INPUT -m mac --mac-source ab:cd:ef:01:23:45 -m mark --mark 45
ip rule add fwmark 45 table 45

Would let all packets coming from MAC ab:cd:ef:01:23:45 be routed according
to the rules in routing table 45.

Doei, Arthur.
