Hello 9fans.
I'm thinking of writing a NAT implementation for plan 9. I have searched the
archives and I'm not quite sure how to get started.
As I see it there could be three ways of approaching this:
1. User space implementation using ipmux
2. User space using pkt interfaces in ipifc.
3. Kernel using something like sources/dho/nfil
Do you have any advices on how to capture packets and how to send them out
again after replacing src/dst addr and port?
Are there any ways of testing NAT in a virtual machine? Right now I'm using
vmware and it would be nice to be able to test it without setting up a real
machine with two Ethernet interfaces.
