Message-ID: <1393124438.20100427001703@mail.ru> (raw)

Hello, I'm using SNAT with --persistent, but I just don't understand
clearly what you ment in its description:
"Gives a client the same source-/destination-address for each connection."

1. What does "client" mean? An IP, process?

2. If I have one server with several IPs.
- Will all my connections go through one IP?
ip1->facebook
ip1->twitter
ip1->something-else.com
- Or for each connection IP will be chosen randomly?
ip3->facebook
ip7->twitter
ip233->something else
