By the time packets would make it to your rule, yes. My concern is that
the router / VPN setup will see one subnet on one ethernet interface and
the same subnet on the other end of the tunnel. At least that is the
understanding that I got from the OP. So my concern is not so much
confusion on IPTables part so much as it is a simple routing (which
interface gets used) seeing the same subnet in two different locations.
I guess I should ask, how well will the router handle having the same
subnet addresses in two different (non connected) locations, one being
the ethernet interface and the other being through the tunnel?
