Hi,
I would like to know if there is a way to perform NAT passthrough of
MAC address.

I have a OpenWRT router and would like to passthrough the MAC address
of my LAN client on the WAN but retain NAT/Masquerading for other LAN
entities in the same subnet.

Regards,
Karthik

I don't know if you will be able to do this will IPTables or not.  I 
think you will have much better luck looking at bridging, namely a 
bridging router.  You can bridge the traffic to / from the MAC(s) you 
want while still doing normal routing for the rest of your LAN.
