When you import gateway's outside ip stack as /net.alt and try to ping
/net.alt/<outside ipaddress> i can understand that the ping packet is
sent from gateway's outside ip stack using its outside ipaddress etc.
what happens when the ping response comes back. will that packet be
forwarded to both gateway and inside machine ? or only to inside
machine ?
how does this internally work. i mean when you import /net.alt the
ippacket with header is forwarded or without header ?

i havent seen kernel code. just curious
