With regards to both posts talking about additional fields, I would be
careful. You want it to be applicable to any packet filter, then you
can't use fields which don't have analogous fields in some packet
filters. FORWARD, for example, is implied by some packet filters by a
PERMIT; packet filters don't all include masquerading blah blah blah.

My $.02.

More possibilities like: Mapped IP (1 to 1), Virtual IP (port mapping
and
load balancing) and masquerading (1 to many)

Please forgive me if the terms are incorrect, but these are the ones
used in
NetScreen.
