LARTC - Jul 2003 - new iptable nat target extension --jump rt_lookup - possible?

hi all,

just wondering what everyone would think about

iptables --append POSTROUTING or OUTPUT --table nat --jump rt_lookup


this would ask for a new route lookup as a packet traverses the nat
table (done once) and would enable the effective marking/routing of
locally generated packets, as well as determining a potentially new
out-interface, etc, after natting.

can anyone comment on potential problems/dangers/issues from such a
--jump?

cheers

charles
