Folks.
Does Linux do true NAT yet?
In other words - can you take a Linux box, stick two LAN cards in it, and
have it convert one destination address to another?
What I'm after is something like this.
Network
|
|----------Linux Box
| |
|
|-------Translated
I want to tell a machine on NETWORK to telnet or ping or SNMP get an
address of
11.254.1.1
and have it come out the other side of the Linux box as
10.254.1.1
In other words, translate the network component of the destination address
only to a different one - leave the node part alone.
The reason for this is complex - but basically, I want to monitor a number
of disparate networks all using the 10.x.x.x network internally. I want to
monitor this from ONE network management workstation - and I've sold 'em
on using Linux to do the translation without knowing exactly if it's
capable of it {bashful grin}.
Thanks.
